Re: M_Boats: Rudder bolts

[Stanley Winarski]

Doug,

There may be some crud inside the spacer. It should break loose if you grip the spacer with a visegrip (don't compress the spacer) as you apply the wrench to the bolt head. Make sure that is a spacer and not the thicker body of the bolt - one of those with a smaller threaded end - I don't remember which were used on my rudder when I took it apart and it isn't nearby where I can get a look at it but if you haven't solved the issue yet, let me know and I'll go to the Marina and check mine out.

Stan
