#57: When Re-Torquing Keel Bolts: 250 = 180



At least that’s the decision we made after we broke the torque wrench hammering these guys down. It was a bit of a project all told but we got ‘er done and were glad we did because we ended up discovering and righting some hardware wrongs once we’d dug into the project. Note to viewers: Check your keel bolts every 3-5 years. Thanks to the boys at https://www.perdidosailor.com/ for coaching us DIY’ers along. Enjoy!
