| Post subject: | Mirage drive full of sand |
Looking for help...!!! New to hobie kayaks and last weekend when I was landing on sandy beach I forgot to take drive out and is full off sand now. I flush it properly with fresh water but it still gritting and not moving very easy as it was before! So should I take it a part completely? (is it easy enough)? And flush it again or what are your recommendations? What grease should I use and on what parts? Thanks for any tips and ideas |

I had the same problem. Took the Outhaul Block covers off and that's where most of the sand was. Really easy to take off without disassembling anything else. Then I hosed everything down real well and liberally sprayed all moving parts with CRC 6-56. |
