I need to remove, rebed and tighten the keel bolts on my 1991 Legend 37.5 The boat is 280 miles away and before I go for a visit, I would like to make sure I have the right tools for this job. Does anyone know the sizes of the nuts on the keel bolts? I am thinking a deep socket might be the tool of choice and would like to purchase before I leave.

When?

When do you need to know Steve? If you are going this weekend you need the size immediately I guess. You could go to your local tool rental shop and take a whole set I suppose. FWIW the nuts on my H37C keel are 1 and 1/8". Bought the deep socket at Sears Hardware. Maybe a call to Hunter?

Ed - Good Idea

The thought of renting a deep socket is a great idea. I think the bolts are aobut 1-1/8" as you suggest, but I am not sure. I will take a range from 1" to 1-1/2" just to be sure.
