Richard, how was Lewmar for delivery of the frames? Because my boat is a 2018 build Lewmar offered a discount on the pricing of anodised frames, so I have ordered a complete set. It is about 2 months since I ordered and I am regularly advised that the frames will be shipped in “a couple of weeks”. It is getting frustrating.

Hi Gordon, mine took about 6 weeks back in April (I ordered 2). I paid half price by going via my dealer. I’m a 2018 build too. I suspect they are prioritising the big boat builders. Not a surprise, they had plenty of the powder coated available ;) the delay was on anodised.

When I contacted them they had 1 in stock and that came in to the dealers in a few days. They have been coming in piecemeal, which works for me travelling down to Malta each month and Air Malta let me take them as hand luggage. They are supposed to have more stock coming after 27th June according to the dealer ordering system. I pick them up as they come in. I live in Hampshire not far from the Lewmar offices so that may be a factor. If you have someone who does hard anodizing near you they should be able to redo the old ones. I paid £60 for that but the issue then was the seized bolts each time. The hinge weld is not strong in sheer so penetrating oil and shocking the bolt generally removes the hinge! Heat had no effect and in the end I had to grind off the bolt and drill it out. If you do this the cost of the seal and the new fittings makes it about the same.
