Are there pins that lock the table to the wall? If so I need some.


Table works almost as intended, holds plates and cups while eating. Problem is if someone puts weight on a side it pops out of the brackets. Doesn’t take much for the table to twist out.

Erik,
Sorry, which cabin layout do you have? Port and starboard settee with the swing-down table attached to the port side bulkhead? Or the dinette style cabin with a starboard settee with a pair of opposing seats on the port side with a dinettetable in between?
If the former, some people have replaced the brackets with hinges. If the latter, there should be two rubber hold-down straps that keep the table securely held in place. You can purchase them from Catalina Direct.
Here is a link to the part I’m familiar with:

If you need some hinges, look for some quality brass or stainless steel hinges.

I drilled holes through the bulkhead and use aircraft lock pins. OOPS, NEVER MIND, I just saw the last post. I did not realize they still had the dinette in '86.


I hated the factory table so I made several small ones with the same hardware so my pins would work with any table.
