That was me. I ended up fabricating one out of an old VHF antenna masthead mounting bracket and a small u bolt. I incorporated an eye strap on the top of the rail for attaching a spare halyard or (future) cruising spinnaker tack. Good to know about the Catalina product. Looks like a great deal. Thanks!

That's a nice option. I converted my M17 to a pulpit mounted nav light last spring by having a local welder weld a bracket onto the pulpit. If I had known about this Catalina Direct bracket, I probably would have used it instead, even though the welded bracket is a little bit sleeker. Catalina Direct is a useful resource for other things too. I've been eyeing their reseal kits for aluminum framed portlights. As far as I can see, old M17 portlight frames and old Catalina portlight frames are virtually identical. ----- Original Message ----- From: "GILASAILR--- via montgomery_boats" <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> To: "montgomery boats" <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2016 12:57:51 PM Subject: M_Boats: AS bow light bracket for pulpit available from Catalina Direct Someone was looking for these awhile back - Just received an email from from Catalina Direct.
