Thanks for all the attention. Yeah, cant get the bolt off without drilling the rivets, not gonna do that. I'll just bend the bracket so it leads aft correctly. Had the boat a couple of weeks now and have been out on the Detroit river about 10 times. She sails great and is in sound condition. I'll tell you, when I'm sailing hard on the wind and a gust comes along the boat has some serious weather helm, it's not easy to keep it in the sweet spot. It cant help that the wind changes on the river about every 200ft. I've just moved the boat down to the mouth of the river (opening to Lake Erie), well see what lake sailing is like this week.
