Hello,Does anyone know what is the purpose of the U bolt in the attached picture? I have a leak from the fitting. I plan on removing the U bolt and sealing the holes. However, if there is a purpose for the fitting, I'll rebed it and leave it alone.The boat was set up for sailing with a spinnaker. Is it to route a spin control line or something? I have used an asymmetric chute, but not a regular one.Thanks,Barry
