Ericson 38 bow rail

[Paulo R. Lima]

I'm looking for information on replacing a bow rail on an Ericson 38.We have found that the roller furling drum makes it diffucult to deploy or keep the anchor on the roller I would like to add a new rail and pulpit,like those on Pacific Seacraft and Aloha. I have a plan but don't know where to get the pipe bent at a reasonable cost.

Got any pics? I am trying hard to imagine the problem but I can't see it as the anchor is easy to deploy and retrieve from my E38 with roller furling. Custom stainless work is the bread and butter of some marine fabricators. Ask around for a local shop at your marina. RT
