Mainship 390 mooring samson post mounting

[jdawson2481]

Hi My brother has just bought a mainship 390 in australia , the boat doesnt have the samson/mooring post mounted as in this pic.
looks like a factory item - i know a long shot but if anyone knows where I could buy one that would be great , happy to ship from the us . Also would anyone know if the deck and anchor chain box is already reinforced to take the bolts to a mooring post ?

Greetings,
Welcome aboard. I suspect a samson post/mooring bit is fairly common kit and would be available at any of the Australian Chandlers. But... Defender.com Search Results: samson post

One of MANY hits with a Google search...

Would that be a Blue 390 from Newcastle ?

For some reason, your picture isn't coming up on either my tablet of laptop. I'd like to see where they mounted this, as I've never seen a 390 with a samson post.

This might be the original unit: http://www.marlow-hunter.com/export/Mainship/BOMS/Parts photos/1001019.jpg

This was used on the 34T and looks like the one on the 390.

I recently heard that the price for a new one is $1800US (!).

I know that our 430 came with one from the factory. Don't know about the 390's.
