Subject: Cabin Keys

Hi,
I am a new owner of a 1973 Mariner 36 Ketch, Hull #9, "GRAN MARINER". I have been reading much of the information already posted. What a great site. Has anyone had any luck getting a copy of their cabin key? Thanks in advance.
Brian

I had luck by emailing Hori Locks, in Tokyo. They responded within a day or so, and I was able to get a key made. Hori made all of the Mariner companion way hatch locks. Don't know about your boat though, as she was probably built in the US.

Gitano,

My boat was made in Japan. I just sent an email with some photos to Hori Locks. I will let you know what they say. Thanks for all your help.

Brian, do a search on this site for "keys". I to have the Hori lock so don't know if this will help or not but some 20yrs ago I had a local locksmith make me a spare key. The blank says its from the "Independent Lock Co." out of Fichville Mass. blank #888.

Long time lurker .. I own a mariner 36, hull #3.
I have 2 keys I acquired from the previous owner. Solid brass marked Ilco 52B. They are still in the Ilco inventory. go here: http://www.kaba-ilco.com/key_systems/literature/literature_grid_key_blanks.aspx?id=55
and download the "bit and Barrel" pdf catalogue. search for 52b. looks just like what I have, though the previous owner pierced and filed a pretty cool skull into the grip of one of mine. :-)
Presumably a local locksmith should be able to order it?? though I havn't tried.

Don and I were at the local True Value hardware store and they had a replacement key that fit our 1979 Mariner 40. The cost -- $3.99!
