Don;

The screwy thingy I was referring to in my last post actaully holds everything in place. There is also a cotter pin going through it for extra security. Does the screwy thingy look familiar to you now. Obviously I don't know the proper name for it.

It's snowing here again in Calgary today and my departure date for NS has been moved up to May 16. (WestJest only charged me an extra $8.03) The downside of this is I won't be able to go to Kelowna for the Hobie 16 regatta. I was really looking forward to it too.

Time is getting short for me here so I hope we get this done soon. One of the first jobs I'll do (AFTER launching the Celtic Kiss) will be to check my own bearings.

Yes, that is exactly what the bearings look like. Thanks for getting that info for me. Castle Nut sounds much more technical than screwy thingy.
