Replacement stanchions

[tommadura]

Due to a slight race course mishap, I need to replace a lifeline stanchion and base on my 1985 Hunter 31.

Is there anyplace I can buy these parts or do I need to find someone to fabricate them for me?

Tom:

I suggest you get ahold of one salvage yards in the gulf coast. There were enough of the Hunters from that era that you should be able to find the base. They were an extrusion. You can probably go to a machine shop and have one made, but I am sure that it will not be cheap. I think that the design was changed on the later model and they used a more traditional type stanchion with a bolt thru the bottom (goes thru the toe rail) and a support leg that screws into the deck.

I think I have some photos of these from Steve Penny's H'31. I will see if I can find them.

If your able to find any extra's let me know I could use a few myself.
