The John Arthur needs your help! Two of the wheelhouse door locks were discarded by someone in the years before I got the boat. The replacement locks are just cheap locks like on any tract house and look plain nasty adjacent to the vintage brass and wood. I would like to find a pair similar to the remaining lock in the picture. All old engine folks accumulate shiney dodads and old brass things, so can you help me out on this? When I ask at the old marinas around here, they look at me like I have an extra head. Thanks, George

Will try my best to help out George. At the moment I don't think I have anything near what you are looking for but will keep looking. |

George, No locks, but I still have the corner sink and hardware for you. Hardware is faucets, drain and soap dish. Just not sure how to get it to you. I suspect it is kind of fragile

You could try Ebay for antique hardware,and keep checking back they could show up.I do see you have a rusty nail holding one of the knobs on. |
