Anti foul/centre board removal.

[yachtsman]

Just put my 260 back in the water after anti fouling her. First time. Used International Interprotect and then International Ultra.
The task of removing the centre board was made much easier thanks to the information on this forum. So a big thankyou to Pat Adam for his very detailed article and Mike Smith for his pictures of how to safely put her on the hard.

Glad to help. Now you owe me a ride on that Open 60(or whatever it is) you mess around with

Hope you used the 3/4"x18" threaded rod trick to align the CB bracket. That was one major time saver I gleaned from this site. Mine goes up for bottom paint and a bit of a CB repair sometime in the next 2-3wks. I'll be glad when my two page punch list of little tweaks (and bottom paint) is done for our upcoming season.
Take care, Mike

Yes the threaded rod made the job "so" much easier.
