Post subject:  Mast Keeper knob drill angle

The mast keeper knob and screw on my 2008 Bravo is drilled at the wrong angle making it very difficult to attach the hinge gate without using a lot of force to push the mast into the A frame. I just bought this Bravo used and after having so much trouble getting it in, checked a friends Bravo and saw the difference in angle and tightness when set up. Anyone have an idea on how to fix this, or am I just stuck with a difficult assembly or ordering a new A frame.

You can try tweaking the A frame for better alignment with the bearing collar. It may be a little bent.

2010 models use a new gate design to help with tight tolerances at this connection. We do not have this as a simple replacement part. The A frame would have to be replaced.
