If you can wait, I have both sockets on my boat and can look at the sizes. I used ¾” drive.

It was serviced by a shop in Oyster Bay, NY and the local rigger (Jeff Lazar, whom I can't recommend enough) handled the removal and reinstall. So, onto the next project! I've been buying tools as I need them for projects, and this spring I'm going to make sure my keep is securely attached to the boat. Obviously I'll need a torque wrench, a socket, and an extension for the forward bolt at the mast. Does anyone know offhand what size bolt is in the 35-1? Otherwise I'll add calipers to the list of tools. The nuts and bolts are rust free, and the PO replaced the iron washers with stainless backing plates. I can see they were bedded with a some caulking. I am going to remove the nuts, one by one, clean and rebed the backing plates with 4200, and bring the bolts to somewhere below the final torque setting for a few days before the finishing the torquing to 100%. Once that is done and it warms up, I am going to address the leading edge of the keel with gflex, fair it, and paint the bottom. Am I missing anything obvious in the bolt torquing procedure? Thanks, Tom --- Snow Goose 35-1 City Island, NY
