PVC stickers (if they are) can be easily removed with a hot air gun and a plastic scraper.

Bavaria Yacht Help! / Centre cleat installation
« Last post by N44rag on Today at 08:39 »
Hi all

Is anyone able to give me some guidance on how to go about installing a centre cleat on my B31, year 2000 model?

The deck has the raised moulding for the cleats and I have sourced the new ones from SVB24.

I have read on the forum that the area is prepared for installation with a backing plate, but I’m not clear whether I have to simply drill through the deck and through the plate fitting a back nut and washer, or try and tap a thread into the backplate.

Also I’ve seen elsewhere that some people drill a bigger hole than the bolt in the deck, fill the area with epoxy, then re-drill through again.

Any guidance would be a great help.

Have you noticed if sea water has entered the oil, is the oil milky? 

What is the oil level on the dipstick in the saildrive?
Thanks for your help.
A water infiltration issue was dealt with last year. It seem that the problem is a gasket.
The oil level does not change because the leak is very small and the dipstick is also very small. Very difficult to evaluate.
Thanks again.

Should be a 130 model. Hard to see, but the oil is barely visible. It's not coming from the drain plug (that's where the green tape is), but from one of the water intake holes. That means either the internal water channels have corroded away or the gasket between the leg and the gearbox has failed. Or someone tried to clean the water passages with a drill or some such.

You can try and fit a borescope inspection camera in there if it fits and maybe see which problem it is, but either way the saildrive needs to come out and the leg split from the gearbox. Maybe the service (replacement of the rubber diaphragm and also the gasket in question) is due anyways.
Thanks. I will take the saildrive out and check both. Thanks again.

Thank you very much!

Although when I see the price, I think that they are made of some other material and not plastic.
