Paul, Damn....(accompanied by forehead slap) thats why the damned dinghy trailer axle kept seizing up with the traditional "Never-Seize". I thought it was my methodology.
Thank you! David F.

During reinstallation, use Nickel anti-seize or a marine-grade anti-seize. The standard anti-seize (or Never-Seize) contains zinc which in this application is not what you want in a saltwater environment.

While mine is not causing me problems at the moment, (that I know of) I think I will replace it now and not wait for it to fail....it is 28 years old.I witnessed the failure of one on a Beneteau 31...everything you described, filling of the boat interior with soot, fumes and dirty water.....yep, not pretty....nay, down right ugly!RegardsBob AbbottAZURAC&C 3 - 84Halifax, N.S. _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com [email protected]
