Dave,

My solution on Sunday when the table was stuck halfway open and I couldn't move it in either direction was to unscrew the the screws I could get to, and pull the table, track & remaining screw off with brut force -after which I rewarded my self with a now available cold beer.

I am going to the boat this weekend to see if there is a way to attach the table so that it will just swing up instead of slide back to access the ice chest. If not I may just attach the darm thing with velcro when racing and leave it ashore otherwise.
