Bow pulpit

Crigs list or Kijiji or Ebay or scrap/salvage yards. Or make one. I'm sure you could get one from Bay Water Yachts. They sell all the after market MacGregor stuff.

Hi Bill,

I sent you an email with some pics, had a heck of a time, the first time it bounced for to big, then imiss typed your address, haven't found a keyboard that can spell worth a damn, this time it seemed to take. tried to call, and it said you were not accepting calls.

Love this site! Where would I start looking for a bow pulpit for a Newport 17 or one that could be adapted?

Did you ever find a good place to shop for bow pulpits? I need one for a Newport 17 also.

The cost to have one made is way out of my reach, so I have elected to build one this winter. I have majority of what I need to build it and some plans I found for the n16

Get the measurements off the bow for stanchion placement, then contact Sailorman.com
They have hundreds of used pulpits.

Kinda late to the game Bill but, I have a post in "ask all sailors" documenting building a new pulpit/bowsprit you may wanna take a look at. I have a couple years experience in fabbing metal and it might help you as far as ideas go. Just my two cents.

Thank you for the info. I am slowly coming to the realization that owning a free sailboat is not free at all! Looks like I will be building with conduit and trying it that away.
