Tyler: M15s are tough boats .. but not built like 'Acrohc'. i'm currently re-reading Serge's book. -- :: Dave Scobie :: former M15 owner - www.freewebs.com/m15-named-scred :: M17 #375 SWEET PEA - www.m17-375.webs.com :: Sage 17 #1 AIR BORN - www.sagemarine.com On Tue, Aug 4, 2015 at 1:43 PM, <casioqv@usermail.com> wrote:
Thanks Dave, I just wanted to make sure that was normal. I have a brand new 316 stainless bolt and nylock nut, plus stainless compatible loctite.
I should stop imagining Serge Testa luffing up in 70 knot winds every time I replace a nut on my M15 that I mostly sail in tiny lakes with no wind ;)

Tyler:
Jerry rigged all his M15s with the 1/4" bolt. i've never worried that the nylock will come loose ... though inspection before raising mast is best practice.
