I did mine. But I was forced to when one rudder spun on the post. I ended redoing everything for the steering. Rudders, ports, the shelf etc. The...

I'd say mwwhit's description pretty much covers the 42 and 46 early boats as well.
Oops - should be unlocked now.
First day, May 1998 [ATTACH] And the last day with the new owners, leaving Shark River and heading straight to Fire Island on a boat that sat...
