I have an 87' 34 MKII if your are still interested in.

I an have an 87' 34 MKII but it is in the Chesapeake Bay.

Still any left? I have an 87 35 i am selling and want to bring her up before selling. cheers

Thanks, i am going to buy one and service one, give it the hose test and see if it is the gasket or the port needs repacking. I am hoping for the gasket! cheers

I have a an 87' 34 MKII with the original lewmar port lights. The rubber caskets are coming loose. Has anyone repleaced the caskets or the entire port light with some thing newer? Any body ever repack the open and fixed portlights as well, and how bad was the job? cheers Great site btw!!!

Geoff, looks great. I see that it looks like you took the same approach of running all lines aft to rope clutches but forward of the winches. Doyou have a dodger before the clutches?

Was curious if anyone has made any sort of configuration changes to their 34’ in running all lines aft into the cockpit for ease of single handling? I was looking into running all lines, (jib, main, spiniker halyards and first and second reef (separate tack and clew)) along with replace or...

My DM W/S cup bearings are shot. I know there has been several threads about places to get them repaired, but was curious of anyone has upgraded their DM instrumentation with some things else and where did the place the actual gauges if they did replace them. I have a 87 E34 with W/S. Apparent...

Chris & Wendy, sounds like it come out perfectly. I am now in the process of doing exactly what you have completed. I found several threads regarding ways to retard the water leaks from the exterior and have incorporated those as well. Hopefully that will be that. cheers

I don't recall ever running the engine at that high a RPM (2800) before and I agree I would be a little uneasy doing it for any great length of time. I will try the engine in idle and see if that does the trick. I noticed various threads on replacing the two blade prop with a 3 blade, I still...

I was wondering if anyone has had noticeable engine vibration at the mid (1800 - 2200) rpm ranges? I have an 87 34 with the Universal 24. I have had the engine alignment checked and everything looks ok. I don't run the engine but a short distance when we go out, but it is enough noise to be...

I have an 87' 34 and over the last several months have noticed that my portlights are begining to leak. Has anyone undertaken the task of repacking both the fixed and open portlights or had it done preofessionally? Before undertaking such a task I would like to hear if there are any gotchas or...

Ray, thanks for the input. Is the 65 just for interiors and is it easier to work or would I get a longer lasting finish if I used the 95 for both? thanks

I have an 87 34 and have water damage around several portlights down below. I was curious what other owners have used to refresh the finish on their boats? Would also be interested in hearing about the brightwork on deck are well. thanks
