Pintle repair

Lower pintle repair, fabricated in stainless, loosely fitted to rudder. I'm really happy with this. Needs to be set in Sikaflex, drilled and bolted through.
It's too cold a dark in the evening so I will fit this on Saturday.
I will pack the tube and stock bearings with Rocol Aqua 2 grease which apparently is suitable for submerged applications.
Other jobs for the weekend are to fit repair kit to my Henderson deck plate bilge pump and source some marine ply for the cockpit seats, washboards, cabin sole and floor support.
