So I removed all the teak to access and replaced some pumping on my 367 and its a puzzle how to get in back together. I think its magic. I should have payed more attention when I removed all the wood. Any help would be great!

For the last year my diver has had to install copper tape around my prop shaft to tighten the zinc. Same zincs they have used for years. Is my prop shaft shrinking...lol?

After hearing about issues and cost to repair, I did a $350.00 modification to the original.

 Kevin B. suggested this and it works perfect: I added additional track slides forward of fair leads.  That way I have two attachment points for the running backs.

Thanks Dave!

Is there a 367 forum on this site?

What's up with the port and starboard traveling stays? I was interest in asking anyone with a cutter how the heck you go wing on wing with those baby stays in the way? Boom can only swing about 30 degrees to port or starboard before hitting the stays on travelers. Can't move the traveler forward any more without hitting and blocks on cars for the head sail?  How is this issue resolved?

Also, I still have the original club foot and boom for the stay sail which I plan to remove and replace with a furrler for deck space. Any reason to keep the club foot and staysail boom?

Safe sailing!

Hi Dale,

Thanks for the welcoming. You're right about gremlins...would hate to get any bad juju.

Hi Lou,

Great to see another 367 with such a close hull #....bet they got layedup and built next to each other. So is FarAway masculine or feminine. Need to know if your boat is a brother or sister...laugh loool. Where are you in the water?

With so many years of ownership, you'll be a great help I am sure. One thing I did see when I first bought her (yes she's a girl), is that many Pearson owner had issues with the bow sprit and replaced them. A 367 from Portland Oregon came through here about two years ago and while exploring our local Channel Islands they broke the sprit after getting their anchor fouled and the repair cost them 7K. Attached picture was my answer to this issue but I have yet to but any real stress on it yet.

Today I install a xtrace link lite meter. Moving though the What appears to be original equipped stuff slowly but surely. I own Mike's Consignment Marine Supply which has been open for 9 months today and the shop has been affording me some nice gear...roller furler to replace the club foot stay sail setup, new never used 1993 Muir Cougar Windless, tons of gently used hardware and tons of misc. onboard jewels like floating winch handles, dock steps, BBQ's. I should stop bragging but it's a great new business, especially if the owner is a sailboat owner! Check it out it you like and if you see something you may want I'll cut you a discount to my sister/brother 367! www.mikescms.com

Anyway it was really great to hear from you and look forward to many more emails.

Mike

Hi Guys!

New guy here!

I purchased the Nightwind last year. She is a 1983 36' 367 Hull#49, which from what I can tell is the last 367 hull manufactured in 1983. She is my life-a-board in Ventura Ca. I would love to post a picture but...not sure how on this site. Maybe after I snoop around some more. From what I have been told by other Pearson owners, when she left the manufacture they had installed and designed all the available options, including the aft quarter berth. The pervious owners must have been fanatics about the maintenance and upkeep because there is and was nothing to do on this beauty! Enough bragging....so glad to have found this site and would really enjoy meeting more Pearson owners out this way.

Happy Sailing!
