Stainless Drink holders
Gidday guys,
My SX18 only has the white plastic drink holders and I would like to upgrade them to the Stainless steel ones. Does any one know where I might be able to get some (about 8) and the cost? I will need to get them posted to Australia (which is a pain I know). Cheers Tony |
Hey Tony, can you post a pic of your current cupholders, and I'll see what I can figure out!

The ones in my boat are aluminum, didn't know they had SS ones too.
Of course the aluminum version is for High Performance :D |

Our boat came with the upgrade package, but the Stainless cup holders werent there (they were supposed to be). We have the white plastic ones. Check out the Mariah web site for more details if you want.
The Ozy dealer has virtually nothing for Mariahs which is a real bummer:( Any help trying to get these would be fantastic.:) |
Hmmmm I probably have the aluminum ones as 94Talari does. I know they are non removable (for cleaning). I only have four of them.

I've got a spare pair of aluminum ones. I switched mine over to black plastic cuz the boat is white with black trim and the aluminum ones looked kinda silly.

Re: Stainless Drink holders
Any Suggestions as to what type of glue to use?
One of my Aluminum ones came out the other day. ALso ahve one of the Mariah Decals that came off the Starboard Interior Padding. There is some residue Left on the decal and the vinyl. I would apprcate anyone's input here. Thank You Doug :wink_thumbup: |
Re: Stainless Drink holders
Hello Doug,
The cup holders were gluded in with a silicon adhesive. Any good grade silicon adhesive from any hardware store will work, just make sure to clean off the old adhesive before gluing the holder back down. If you want a marine grade adhesive, I recommend either 3M 4000 or 5200 products. The problem I'm having with an adhesive for your shield is finding one that wont attack the plastic and is clear (most are white, tan or black). I would think any silicon adhesive would work but I'm not sure if they would hurt the coating on the shield. I'm sure a latex caulk would be perfectly safe for the shield but again it comes in white. If the color isn't a problem and the mounting surface is hard (not the vinyl upholstery), go for the Latex caulk, it's safe for plastics and it cleans up with water and unless the shield is going to be under water all the time, the Latex is waterproof enough.

Re: Stainless Drink holders
Thank you for the tip on the Cup Holders.
The shield is on the the Starboard Side and came off of the Vinyl Upholstery, so we do have that issue to deal with. Cleaning the existing glue off is also an issue. The Shield has been on there for 15 years. ANy other suggestions would be greatly apprectaed Thank You |

Re: Stainless Drink holders
Nice Links Chief
Purchased some Vinyl Adhesive from Lowe's this week and used it on the Cup holder and it worked peferfectly. Now for the water test this wekend, but I don't think this is going to be an issue. I also used it to re attach the Mariah Emblem inside on the starboard vinyl. So were all patched up and getting ready for the Weekend. Heading for Grand Lake, Grove OK this weekend. :wink_thumbup: |
Re: Stainless Drink holders
Here's some stainless cup holders for RVs that should work great. My wife found these since we're redoing our RV table:

Re: Stainless Drink holders
I would highly recommend putting adhesive on the cup holders. Couple weeks ago I was crusing down the lake and the port bow holder flew out and was inchs away from hitting a passengers head. Never did find it.

Re: Stainless Drink holders
I used a Vinyl Adhevise and it seems to be holding. Can't get it out :)
