Sold MS 34 Pilot NJ Turned over the Mayrose to the new owners yesterday.

Sale Pending

Mainship 34 Pilot NJ price reduced $90,000 I just dropped the price to $90,000. A lot of MS 34 pilots for sale and I need to sell before this winter. Greg

One more omission: It has AC / Heat which works well.

Sorry---It's a 34 Mainship Pilot

I made that assumption of good machining practices with regards to rotation. Thus creating this post. Going on line it seems more treads are just right handed, independent of prop rotation. Maybe practical experience shows less problems when removing, when most people would naturally loosen a...

Right hand threads

I have a right hand prop on a MS 34 Pilot. Does anyone know what threads are on the shaft? Can't see any part of the threads. Greg

What are the other levels in the report? Greg

Captains License I qualified for the Masters License. The paperwork was a the real pain!!!!! The tests were daunting when I first looked into this. The test in hindsight were easy after the US Captains Training course. I am a better operator after getting my Masters. Did I say the paperwork...

MS Pilot 34 Hard Top just installed We just installed an Atlantic Towers hard top. Install was pretty strait forward. Jamie from Novia Scotia gave a few tips....Thanks Again. Our legs had to be pulled out which made attaching the legs to the top a pain. The job took about 5 hours. I have to...

I ran a 34 Mainship Pilot with a 370 Yanmar for 10 + hours mostly at 2900 RPMs. About 11 Gallons/hr. Speed ranged from 15.5 knots with a 2-3' swells at 10 seconds to 16.5 calm no current and wind.

It doesn't feel like balsa. Seems more like a dense foam type product. I just re-cored the swim platform that had balsa.

This is from above the waterline where the swim platform attaches to the transom. It has some kind of core material, doesn't seem like wood. Greg

We really appreciate all the replies. It is Sunbrella. Going thru the boat yesterday we found a receipt for the bimini. Which reinforces our purchase of the Sailrite sewing machine last winter for cushions on our departing 30 Pilot . That will be a fun project this winter. Greg and Rosie

We are moving up to a 34 pilot with what appears to have an original Bimini. It would be nice to get thru this season, and make a new one this winter. Waterproofing would be needed. I would like to know what fabric was used, as to match waterproofing. Any idea of the fabric or...

Frank, 2" X .02=.040" I am reading .045" Thanks Chief Greg

Bill, The seller had replaced a engine mount last fall, I don't think he had it aligned. My guess is the failing engine mount misaligned the shaft and caused bearing wear. BTW, I checked my current 30 pilot. No play whatsoever. Greg

Is clearance in the centered position. So if I can jack the shaft .045" is my clearance .0225"? Thanks Greg

Thanks everyone. I am going to see if I can get the owner to replace. Greg

I measured today. ----.045" I can lift the shaft. How much will the bearing shrink when it is dry?

It's a 2" shaft, I am going to take a dial indicator down with me and measure. Look closer at the groves. I really appreciate the feedback. Greg
