Finding bow pulpits for our Catamaran

[Nahbrown]

We have a 2005 Lagoon 440 and I want to get bow pulpits with the small seats.

Im open to used, salvaged or even modifying ones from another model or new if I must. Finding them has been a challenge but it makes me wonder what happened to the charter fleets after the hurricanes? Did no one salvage the parts from those boats?

I'm wondering where you live? Do you live in the US of A?

Maybe I'm going blind!

There's stacks of boat parts recycling establishments such as

Wierd. The article is exactly what Im looking for however the four business it lists closest to me are not what they describe. 1 is like a overstocked resaler and the other 3 go out and recuse boats.


I did find sailorman in Ft Lauderdale Florida... I dont know if they have what I want because they are closes due to the virus.

Possibly some dealers worth checking here. (But if the US of A is like Australia a lot of dealers have closed their doors due to the pandemic.)

Still don't know where you are but Bacon Sails in Annapolis used to have a ton of reclaimed stuff like that.

Do you have pulpits currently? Could it be a matter of having tubes welded or bolted in place to support seat material and the weight of the person sitting?

And don’t forget good backing plates.

Currently just south of St Augustine Florida but I do have a vehicle because we didn’t put it into storage when everything shut down.

I thought about this as an option and am looking for a local who does stainless work.

I dont believe this boat ever had bow pulpits.

Sailorman didn't have any 4 weeks ago or I would have scooped them up. Actually I've never seen them there, they wouldn't last long if they got some. Just gotta be lucky to stumble onto them or bite the bullet and have some custom fab'd.
Good luck!
