Mariner 40 service and replacement of missing parts and putting floor in Cornish Crabber so it is better to work inside the boat while refitting the interior

When this Mariner 40 came to the workshop the owner said it just needs a service and then I could fit it to his RIB.

The first job was to source a new top power trim pin and bushes, then fitting a new lower engine transom bracket anode. These parts were difficult to source as the engine is over 10 years old and the parts as not been stock in the UK for over 5 years, so it as been necessary to source these parts from the European central stockist to see if they had any left. Luckily they had and I was able to sort this engine. This was only possible because of contacts in the trade. 

The job all done and refitted on its transport pallet ready to go back to its owner and to be put on his RIB.

The temporary floor fitted to the aft end of the Cornish Crabber to make working on the inside easier to do and to get in and out of the boat

With this floor in position it will be easier to put power tools such as crop saws and small pillar drills to make items without of boat
