Sorry for the late response. I did speak with U-line. They no longer manufacture the Ice Bucket/Bin. I sent an email to U-line as well. I received the same information. They no longer make it and they do not manufacture a like substitution. My short term solution? I took the fruit bin from a small c...

Will do. Seems the best route.

All,

I have a U-line Model 45A Ice Maker aboard my 1980 F36. The ice maker works well. But.... The Ice Bucket is missing.

The original parts catalogue describes the part as “item 40, Part No. 524.”

Unable to find the part anywhere online? Should I just call u-line?

Best,

Steve

My F36 was built in late 77 , it is a 78 model . And when it was registered with the state it was a 1978 . However when I returned it to U.S.C.G. Documentation the CG papers say 1977 . They go by the completion date of the boat . Its confusing yes but the way it is . Your insurance likely wil go by...

Yes, newly purchased. Excellent condition! It's missing the F36 owner/operator manual. And the other manuals that go along with the engines, fridge, princess stove top, air conditioning, ice maker, etc. Can't seem to find any documentation for the taking on the internet. EDIT: 9/21: Never mind. I fo...

Roger that! Well, I'm spry enough to go up and down the ladder to the bridge. I like the way the cabin layout flows without the lower helm. Not to mention all the booze the previous owner left in the wet bar.

Hello all. I recently acquired a Trojan 1979 F36. Hull: 4610503. 1st question of many. :shock: Why is there no lower helm? Was it a factory option not to have one installed? Everything looks original on the boat. Including the wet bar that resides where the lower helm was, never was or should be? Ca...
