Ah, BWY!

I bent a spreader. What is that made of and where do I get some?!

Just because you CAN put something on a boat doesn’t mean you should.

Forgot one important detail. The gelcoat on a 26M is a little thinner than most fiberglass boats. So, the best advice is get it clean. And then keep it that way. Covering or storing indoors and an occasional one-step polish and wax will keep it looking great.

2). First, let me say that you’ll get as many answers to this question as there are fiberglass boats afloat. What you seem to be referring to is the gelcoat oxidation on a boat that has been left out in the sun. The issue is that this layer must actually be removed. And that depends on how bad it is...

Getting the old one off is easy. I’ve got a cherry picker that’ll pluck that thing off and drop it in my truck no problem.

But I’ve no experience with installing one.

YOURS is white.

Jolly Dodger, I’m bettin’ your boat was originally sold by Captain Frank, with a steel trailer (right here next to the salt water OCEAN :? ) and a Tohatsu 50 HP TLDI 2 stroke. In that case, and assuming the compressor is serviceable, I’d PAY you for it. Want it in any case! In terms of dealers, I lo...

Solid built, powder coated (they have LOTS of color choices) aluminum. Lots of color choices for the non-skid mats. There are only 2 minor issues. The flange on the winch mount and extension is too adjustable for my taste. But it does stay in place with all 8 bolts tight. And the little brackets for...

After neglecting my Mac for 15 years, I've retired and decided to retrieve mine from behind a barn, between a goat farm and chicken pen. https://i.postimg.cc/QHr9xnHf/IMG-0349.jpg 1. I'm in the same boat except that mine seems to be in working order. Have a fuel restriction issue I'm looking into . ...

Better view of the stairs mount





Right now I have the hand rail off. I'll put it back later. But here you can see better where that top step takes me.

Stair mount mounted! https://i.postimg.cc/gxM64jQ8/IMG-0415.jpg I don't have pics of the assembly of the stairs themselves. That was the trickiest part (at least to me). I I'll take some close ups in a bit. And I'm old and confused. I only have 6 steps. But . . . Steps and hand rail mounted! https:/...

Mounted!

Krum, There isn't a model number. They size them based on the rise and trailer mounting. Can be from 3 to 7 steps depending on the rise. How it mounts to the trailer depends on the trailer. I have the AlumaSTEP stairs with 7 steps and winch post mounting. Rainin' right now. I'll get you some better ...

My Mac trailer failed after 4 years. Due to the way the tongue was made, it trapped water in the tongue and simply rusted through. Snapped one Sunday afternoon while trying to launch. Right at the top of the ramp. Had to sit with it all night waiting for the wrecker with the right attachment to pluc...
