Port Manufacturer

[LakeErieWX]

We have a 2001 Mainship 34 Pilot. The hinges on two of our six ports no longer hold the port open. We have checked, but we can't find a manufacturer's name. Anyone know the brand and a source for replacement hinges?


Thanks,
Mark

Do you have any close up photos?

I don't have a picture, but I'll post one in the next several days.


Thanks.

Someone with a Mainship may know but who knows if they changed suppliers from year to year. With a photo someone may recognize them.

Minne are Bomar now Pompanette. Inside the bow hatches there should be a serial number that their customer support can confirm the model and year of the hatches and they can sometimes correlate that to the port window. Can’t say enough good things about their customer support. Worth a try.

Not the greatest photo because we are now inside, but this is it.

My Bacchus website and the Parts Sticky at top of Marlow-Mainship section has link & directions to access MS Parts pictures & sources.
I have thev34T/HT BOM that is searchable but not for other models.
The Parts include many (but not all for MS, Luhrs, & Hunter)
If you scan through LG size thumbnails and find a port light open the pic tobsee if it matches.
Thev34T/ HT are SS Bomar / Pompanette... might be worth checking their plastic ones as a start.

These look identical to mine in my MS350. I have taken them apart and a small plastic tab is broken that usually allows a metal plate to click and hold the Ports open. I have 3 broken of 4 ports. I be interested in who made them and see if we can get parts. Probably a wishful exercise since boat is a '97
