Has anyone recently replaced their bow pulpit? If so, where did you buy it, and how much did it cost?

Steve if you find the right supplier please post the source.

Note, if you measure the placement of the pulpit legs on the newer hulls versus the older hulls you will find that they moved the pulpit aft on later models. I am not sure if the overall measurements of the pulpits are the same, or different.

However, this is worth considering because if you use an older hull pulpit template for measurements (which may exist at Tops Quality)) and want the pulpit to fit into exact deck holes of the newer hulls, it might not line up.

It appears from casual inspection that the change in pulpit location occured with the change in cockpit configuration around Hull 460 or so.

Steve, I have newer hull and aft placed pulpit legs like Blue meanie -- and have a slight bend in my pulpit that is annoying and therefore it will be replaced when I find a reasonable supplier. thanks.
