Getting Skater ready for next Ft. Myers Offshore event

[appsyscons]

She is on the trailer, and enjoying some serious cleaning and detailing. I also have to
service the lower units, replace my indicator cables, and give everything a 'once over'.

Looking forward to the thanksgiving event.

Stainless Marine trim control cables

I have gone through 6 of these on this boat

Yep!

Hopefully, this will add longevity to the cables.

I took the end cover off, pulled the cable as far as it would come out, greased it and put it back in, several times.

Next I filled the boots with grease and zip-tied them at the top and bottom. I used an grease gun injection needle to do the filling.

Now all of the places water can get into the cables, are bathe in grease, and under the 'sealed' boot.

Have you chatted with Ryan to see what they do?
