I did a couple last week and was pissed off to find the original installed one was done with #12 screws and a couple of plastic wedges... and zonked in with 5200 and bent. why anyone would use a couple of #12s to anchor a spin in the winds that J30 nuts like to fly spin is beyond me. fortunately the #10 tap worked perfectly in the taped #12 hole. 438 data CaptainVic.com J80Ville.com -- Newport/Naples 2015 J22Ville.com -- Newport 2013 Naples Winter 12/13 -- #505
