Subject: Footstretcher bolts Date: 2021-05-29 15:48 From: zooey Schiff <zzooey@...> To: rfsproull@..., elaCS@..., ateschner@..., ippolito.mike@..., jcarey@... I replaced the Fluid Design foot stretcher bolts with a similar set up except that there¡¯s a locking nut on top. When you¡¯re tightening things down, if you have to change the foot stretcher position use hand pressure only. If you crank them down to hard you can break the gunnel with tools. You can use a Phillips head screwdriver to hold the bolt but don¡¯t go ape when hand tightening down. The locking nut ,hand tight , should keep the wingnut from falling off. If you need a replacement when you¡¯re on the water, I¡¯ve put the original on the foot stretcher just below the NK. You can see it here with blue tape. So if you lose the whole assembly on the water, throw your legs over the side and just use this original. Ernie, I don¡¯t have Jeff Momot On my list, could you give him this message? And anybody else who rows the fluid That I¡¯ve left out let¡¯s pass it along. |
