Hunter 380 Herrington Harbour North
I recently purchased a 2000 380 and had some questions regarding a couple of details of the boat for maintenance purposes.

1. What is the shaft diameter? I'm planning to replace the zincs in the middle of the summer and was curious of the correct size to buy.

2. What is the thickness of the wire rope for the lifelines? It appears to be the lifelines that were original with the boat. Would they be 3/16" or something different? I plan to replace a couple of the pelican hooks and didn't want to waste too much time trying to sort out the sizing and possibly buying the incorrect size.

Thanks for your help. I've been lurking/reading the site for a couple of months and have been able to benefit a lot from the discussions.

If you're just replacing the pelican hooks and not making up new cables, the wire size is not what's important. You'll need to know the thread size of the studs that the pelican hooks screw into.
