Re: Lagoon 440 recall action
We had the brackets installed as a warranty matter on our 2018 450. In my view this is not an acceptable fix for a structural issue with the hatches. If the boat is supplied with fixed glass escape hatches, then that is the specification that one has paid for. Installing some brackets that effectively screw into the hull to keep the glass in the hatches is something different altogether. Would anyone be interested to turn this into a class action to get Lagoon to replace all suspect hatches with models they can guarantee to actually work to specification? I guess if enough people get together they could be moved to fix this properly, or am I just being precious here?

Re: Lagoon 440 recall action
We have a 2009 Lagoon 420,? Contact Christine Pocreau at C.pocreau@...? ?ask about Goiot survival panel recalls.? She initially said we were not affected but later followed up with a email stating we were on the list.? We have received retention brackets for install with instructions.? It was recall notice #19009 for our boat but do not know if the 440s will have the same recall number.? ?

Re: Winter condensation and mould
At the 450 all cabins have vents at the big hatches. I leave them open (it has never rained in), and leave open also all doors to cabins and toilets. I haven't had any problems with mildew yet, except on my rainwear in the closed closet.?Also have been on the hard in Cleopatra. (Wouldn't let any more work be done there, the Saildrive oil was still milky after the paid oil change in my absence -, during the removing of the impeller of the generator they damaged the water pump - and instead of admitting that I was billed for more useless repairs. Finally this had to be repaired by another shipyard.)?

120v AC dilemma
My 2006 (hull #369) Lagoon 389S has two electrical outlets in the port side under the bunk. They are for the hot water heater and what used to be the battery charger. The tricky thing is they both only function when hooked up to shore power. I¡¯ve now changed over to a 3000w charger/inverter and lithium batteries so I¡¯d like these outlets to work with the inverter OR shore power as may be available.
I¡¯ve tried to trace down the split between these outlets and the rest of the boat to no avail. Does anyone have an idea or schematic or likewise boat that was modified? With my current setup I can now power everything on the hook and I even have enough to run the hot water heater off the lithium instead of cranking an engine. Thanks for all the ideas and help over the years. J. Walls |

The factory started producing hard top bimini¡¯s in late 2008 as mine was ordered in 2007 and I picked it up at the factory in late 2008? Cheers Theo Cats Paw 380 S2 hull 540 On Wednesday, September 18, 2019, 8:27 am, rick dilger via Groups.Io <rickdilger@...> wrote:

FYI, my 2011 L380 had a factory installed hardtop. Part of the deal when I ordered the boat.

Re: Delamination on bimini hard top
#380s2
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDedicated Marine has a hardtop for the 380 and 410 to bolt onto the existing frame. Excellent upgrade and worth the money. Located in Florida US. ? Steve in Solomons MD 410 S2 E ? From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of nigiil via Groups.Io ? Hi Martin, Is your hardtop from the factory? I've only seen soft tops on L380s unless somebody built them. If it's been built aftermarket, which I think is likely, it's construction could be with a divicell foam or a honeycomb. The honeycomb approach is lighter but known for trapping water and causing delamination. Only way to know is exploratory with a drill or saw. Also, you mentioned it has nonskid on it? You can make a silicone form out of the existing nonskid and use it to repair the gelcoat where you worked on it. If it were me, I'd probably cut the underside open, replace core if necessary, and dry it all out. Then I would use epoxy to glue the piece(s) I removed back in, fiberglass tape over the seams and fair it out. I'd finish by painting the entire underside so it's all one color. This approach would leave the existing gelcoat and nonskid on the top untouched so getting a color match or nonskid pattern would be avoided. I've never heard of using gorilla glue but I suspect that it might make doing the repair over correctly later a pita. Also, if you have honeycomb core it may just fill that up. Let us know what you end up doing and how it comes out.? ? Richard Hake SV Mai Tai 1995 L37 TPI ? ? ? ? On Sep 17, 2019 7:14 AM, "Martin Eckhardt via Groups.Io" <martin_eckhardt@...> wrote:
