Selden in mast furling

[Broke sailor SV Marcell]

Does anyone know where to get a replacement access plate for a Selden Mast, Hunter 36? It's those black covers on the mast you take off to access the sail tack and head when installing the sail.

Call Hunter or Selden,what happen did it fall in the water.
I changed my head to a Raritan PHII and it is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
much better,works like a charm and the guy next to me at the marina begged me for the old Head Mate to replace his old ugly Head Mate.
I did get the PHCII without the bowl and used my head mate bowl and have the handle on the left side so much better and my Marina has a nice free pump out so its really great,I may set up the sink to run into the head with fresh water one day soon.

You can order them directly from Selden. I had to replace a couple of mine last year that had become loose. Don't remember the price, but they were pretty cheap as boat things go.

Hi Nick: One of those covers blew right off the main in 30 KTS close hauled from Deltaville to Reedville. Yes my PH II still works like a charm. Thanks JSalley, I emailed Selden US, have not heard back from them yet.

Hey Jorge

Order two for me. I lost one last weekend also.

They are stock items at Hunter service, I just ordered mine from them.

Re: Call

Hey Nick,
any issues with putting the PHCII in your 36? I'm thinking about the same changeover.

No problem at all it is easy to make the switch,just need a short piece hose for the seawater intake.
My head mate bowl bolts right up to the PHCII

Re: chuckwayne

Thanks, Nick! I ordered the PHC kit from HOW today. Getting ready-the cover may come off next weekend, if the temps in maine stay above freezing!

Selden and Furlex people are great folks to work with. Very accommodating and interested that you are taken care of. They do have a network of regional distributors of their products throughout the world, but you can get stuff directly from them. They are great people who have great products. The U.S. plant is in Charleston.

If I remember correctly I paid 5 bucks a piece when I replaced one (ordered a spare as well). Shipping was at cost if I remember correctly.

Thanks. I called Selden and they are on their way.
