[C38] steering post leak

[Steve Smolinske]

David,

 

Not sure about the copper strip, don't have one on my boat.   Do you not
have access through either the quarter berth or port side locker?

Hi Steve,

 

I finally got around to dealing with the rudder post this weekend and
discovered that there does not seem to be a way to access it, except
from below deck.

I removed the floor form the rear lazaret thinking I could get to it
that way...wrong (see photo). Also checked under the both cockpit
benches for possible

access. Any suggestions?

 

Also, when I removed the rear lazaret floorboard I discovered a copper
strip (see photo) that did not seem to connect to anything on either
end, but that could be because of corrosion. Is this something that
needs to be replaced and if so, does it connect to anything?

 

Thanks very much.

 

Best,

David
