Great video guys! Tons of work but it looks great.

Hey now where you from like that? I recognized the Bernard knife, I've got a few of them. I don't know that I've ever had to sharpen one in like 5-6 years. I saw that and hit Sub.

[@SVAcadian]

@ThatSandersboy LOL, yeah man Arno Bernard makes a good knife, thanks for the sub! we’re from Louisiana

[@yachticus]

just a tip to make your life easier - there is not a nut or a bolt - or combo of both on a yacht that doesn't need "never seize" , nickel based

[@SVAcadian]

@yachticus agree nickel based never seize is a good product but i wouldn’t use it on every single bolt on my yacht. I do use it on certain things though.

Help ! Please tell me where you bought a lower rudder bushing !!!! I’m on Carriacou snd having no luck
The gap is supposed to be .5 mm. No sealant from factory.
I got this info online but I can’t find a bushing.
Top bushing is fine on my 2000 38.1. Lower had lateral movement

[@SVAcadian]

@jacobuszwanenburg1629 I purchased the lower bushing from Murray Yacht Sales located in Florida. Beneteau is using there dealers for parts sales these days. locate the closest beneteau dealer to your location, likely in Martinique, they should be able to source parts for you.

@@SVAcadian thank you 👍

Is that rudder stock fibreglass?
