Thanks Skipper I have sailed the Pelican M-15 for 25 years and find that my sea legs have gone somewhat adrift. I am 62 now and with empty nest have decided to attempt some ocean passages like channel islands and Catalina. I guess the pulpits can be considered "sea walkers" for us seasoned skippers. Do you know where to obtain such items?

Sadler, my bow pulpit is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL to a guy with a long-gone sense of balance like me. I have slide on my butt to get to the foredeck, and need the comfort of a good handhold up there.
