I had a follow up the keel bolt information from Allan Field from March
24th. I contacted Catalina directly on the Keel Bolt torque. Catalina
told me the bolts should be torqued to 100 ft lbs. I was wondering where
the 235 ft lbs number came from?
Best regards

"> Art - The Association, of which you are a member, has the torque
wrench (250 pounds), appropriately sized keel bolt socket (1.5-inch,
6-point) and extension pieces available for loan through the toolbox
program. The boat needs to be on the hard with at least 75% of the
weight of the boat supported by the keel. The bolts get torqued to 235
foot pounds. To access the program, log-on to the website and submit a
request. You only pay the outbound and return shipping charges! - Allan
