Scroll down the page

Thank you Bill!
You are correct as always, but the washer in the bottom of the hole needs to be compressed i bit I assume? in that case some tightness is needed.

Re: C drive drain bolt
It is important to understand that the O-ring seal on the drain plug does not work by being "tight." It works just by rubbing up against the outside of the hole that it fits in, and that fit does not

Re: Lofrans Tigres Windlass gipsy
The worst case, a machine shop can cut a new key slot 180 degrees from the current slot and you can get a new key. Likewise, a machine shop can enlarge keyways and make a key to size.

Thanks, guys. Yeah, I looked at that photo in your book, Bill. I should probably pull the gipsy off next time I'm on the boat just to see if I need to order some parts. I guess I can see where if

You may have a problem with the key way on the inner cone. Mine was a bit twisted. If is damaged it may not engage the cone.

Re: Lofrans Tigres Windlass gipsy
Hi Dave,
The gypsy sits on a cone. If it encounters too much resistance it is designed to slip.
You might check to see if the chain in the locker is jumbled and kicked.
