1.5.3 Installation of Seakeeper
1) Locate and position 4 foundation
spacers, and 4 isolation gaskets
onto hull structure. NOTE: Sealant
or caulk is recommended to be
applied. Apply a small bead
(approximately 4mm wide) of
sealant (silicone or caulk) between
all mating surfaces of each
foundation spacer and each
isolation gasket. This will prevent
water from wicking between the
parts and setting up corrosion.
Check foundation spacers and
isolation gasket alignment by test
fitting bolts without any
obstructions.
2) Lower Seakeeper into position
onto foundation beams and align
over drilled holes.
3) Install Seakeeper supplied M12X1.75 –
70mm fasteners– apply a moderate coat
of removable thread locker to the threads
of each bolt and include a small bead of
marine sealant under each washer
before installation.
4) Torque all fasteners to 65 ft-lbs (88 N-m).
5) Proceed to electrical and cooling portion
of the installation.
