And yes out of yard where boat was stored actually talking to my friends up here in Maine they told me normally boats aren't launched until all bills paid so I think I will be able to negotiate the fees I think are out of line For the future I have already bought the sockets and extensions for when. I have to retorque at napa sockets and extension were about 60 bucks in all and from the list before will order the torque device from amazon Thanks Peter Sent from my iPhone > On Jun 12, 2017, at 10:12 AM, Ron Ricci <ron.ri...@1968.usna.com> wrote: > > Peter, > > I just had my keel bolts torqued by my yard.
