My newly acquired 1980 CNC 36 had the heads cut off of the intermediate shrouds. In trying to get them re-headed I discovered I'm missing 1 ball from under the cap. The through bolt needs replacing as well as possibly the caps. Question is, did Navtec go to a different option because of the dissimilar metals issue? Suggestions please? Sent from my iPhone
