Hey Mark ,
I am not familiar with the cabin door on your Mariah , but there are quite a few owners of the larger 275 , 302 , etc boats. Hang in there , they will chime in I'm sure

BTW Welcome to MOC!!

I took my sliding door off on my 275, but I am not sure if you have the same door. There are guide plates on the inside bottom. Unscrew them. And if I remember right, there is a stopper plate on the top of the door that needs to be removed. Mine didn't have bearings in it. It was just an aluminum channel and the door slides on the inside of it. I cleaned it out and sprayed it down with marine silicone spray and it slides like a breeze now.

My guess is that you will find it at Southco. Have a look at our Original Mariah Vendors list for contact details.
