8.6.4 Steering System

The steering system is located in the bilge, underneath the center cockpit hatch.

To prepare it for storage:

1. Use clean water and detergent to wash off the steering arms

and linkage. Dry with a clean cloth.

2. Apply a light coat of petroleum jelly to the piston rod.

3. Lubricate the pivot points and upper rudder bearings with a

lightweight oil.

4. Inspect the packing glands for wear. If worn, replace with new

packing.

5. Coat all components with a light coat of petroleum jelly or other

suitable corrosion inhibiting material such as BOESHIELD T-9®
or WD-40®.
