    Morgan 321

    Our boat had no cushion in the quarter berth because previous owner(s) used that for stowage, so we use it for that, too. We've spent as much as 3 months on the boat at a time. Space is tight and we haven't made any special spaces for storage. By now I'm sure you've figured out what works for...

    Morgan 321

    Hi, Tom. We have owned a 1984 Morgan 323, "Morgan Glory", for many years. I used to contribute on a Morgan Owners Yahoo group, but activity waned and I stopped following it. I have heard there is a facebook group for Morgan Owners but I'm not on fb. Maybe that could be a resource for M32 info? I...

    How do I remove teak dorade boxes on M-323?

    UPDATE on original topic: The starboard dorade box came free after a single 2 or 3 hour session. During that time I would scrape at the sealant a little, apply Marine Formula, wait 10 minutes, and repeat. As soon as I had some of the forward sealant removed I started applying pressure by tapping...

It took about two hours today applying Marine Formula, waiting about...

    Boat Insurance

    Last time I compared rates (summer, 2013) BoatUS, Progressive, and GEICO (underwritten by Seaworthy) were competitive. We chose GEICO because they covered travel to the Bahamas for no additional charge.

    Sourcr for Replacement Nav Light Lenses

    FYI, I recently found replacement lenses for my bow and stern lights (on a 1984 M323, but I know the same lights were used on some 38x). They seem to have been made by a German company called Peters & Bey. Their only North American Distributor is Britmar Marine, in Canada: Britmar Marine LTD...

    Standing Rigging Replacement

    I don't know the intent of the post concerning replacing the standing rigging without stepping the mast, but I have heard this discussed before. If doing it yourself this could mean replacing one wire at time, using a halyard to provide support for the missing wire - lots of trips up and...
