Re: Leather steering wheel cover install
Thanks Alan- so can you see the disused holes in the wheel cover where it moves over the spoke or no ?

Re: Leather steering wheel cover install
Thanks Joel. That would explain why two covers I got from Amel were too small. Maud didnt seem to know about the different diameters. Was the difference in wheel diameter or the size of the tube used.

Re: Leather steering wheel cover install
There were at least three distinctly different steering wheels used on the Super Maramu during the production that yielded 479 examples over 16 years. I don’t remember the time period each wheel was

Ken,
I have worked on boats that used the butyl tape and use it myself for applications. It is good stuff overall and I always carry some on the boat. Works best it seems on mating parts that

I knew the copper vent pipe for the fuel tank in the closet area, however, I didn't know about the potential condensation problem within the closet. I will look a bit closer at the potential

Re: Genoa Chain Plate bolts Leaking in aft hanging closet
Ken,
Your plan should get you sealed back up. I didn't mention my recommendations for a sealant since I assume that you have a limited selection to pick from. The 5200 or 4200 will work for you.

Re: Leather steering wheel cover install
Looks awesome!
I wrote to them and asked about a kit for the SM .. Their reply was that "there are different sizes" so I needed to send measurements ...
I didn't think this was the case.
May I ask

Ken,
Perhaps something you already did but just in case, were you able to visualize water going through the bolt? Now that you have it stripped down the rub rail you can put some water outside and

Re: Genoa Chain Plate bolts Leaking in aft hanging closet
Ken,
You probably are aware of the fact that the copper pipe vent for the fuel tank is above the area where you have a leak, and this copper vent pipe will create more water than you may realize

Re: Genoa Chain Plate bolts Leaking in aft hanging closet
Hi Ken, did you consider Butyl tape as a sealant? Many prefer it to seal hatches, it stays tacky for years and years and you can easily remove it if needed.

Hi Tom and Kirstin,
We did our wheel with a kit from Boat Leather in 2017.
How you are holding it in the pic is exactly how we did it.
I sewed the cover up to where it meets the spoke cover, pulled

Ken,
My boat is a 1987 Maramu so consider this information general in nature to your situation. I would suggest that you start by removing one bolt to see what kind of sealant was used

Re: Genoa Chain Plate bolts Leaking in aft hanging closet
Hi Ken,
I’d second Eric’s suggestion to use 4200 (or Sikaflex 291), 5200 is primarily an adhesive, not really needed in your application, additionally they are more flexible than 5200 thus less

Sounds like a good plan.
I have found that 5200 on the threads doesn’t present any great difficult in removing the hardware down the road if needed. The greater challenge is avoiding
