[C320-list] Genoa turning blocks

[Bruce Heyman]

Hi Pat,
Yes they do come off.  After removing the four screws I then used a really thin paint scrapper to break the seal.  I used a rubber mallet to force the scrapper into the bedding compound and was careful to not damage the fiber glass.  Then used goo-be-gone to clean up the surface.
Good luck,
Bruce

>need to replace genoa turning block.  I have removed the 4 screws but can't budge the block.  tried tapping it with hammer.  Has anyone removed/replaced these.  I am thinking maybe they are bedded with 3M 5200 caulk.  If so has anyone any experience removing this sealant?
