Ok so I finally had time to go thru and tune up my TI on the list
- clean/wipe down
- check all lines and fittings
- clean out all the extra stuff that gets lost in the hull (must have been like 20 little sand shoves and buckets)
- Hobie upgrades for aka/furling drum
- lube mirage drive
What other stuff do you do?
Findings and questions:
- furling guide was an easy fix and I only dropped one nut in the mast base. How do you get all the water out of the mast base? I use a sponge but is there an easier way?
- aka mounts - so my TI is a 17 and I think mine already had the upgrade...
New one on the left old on the right, so I stopped and didn’t change them. Question: if the aka brace shear pin breaks w/tramps on will the side collapse? Never really thought of it.
- mast - for those who had the rivets dig into there mast electrical tape worked for me
After one year (almost exactly) of sailing, probably 20-30 trips and no issues. Looked like this when I wrapped it.
-seat area - lastly anyone know what the brass inserts inset the seat is for?
