Replaced the O rings on my captains call actuators because they were dripping. Not surprising considering they were 15 years old.
Hardest part was removing and reinstalling the the stainless Corsa pipes. Fought with them for a while on the install until I thought
to lube the 4" rubber boots/connectors slightly, made a huge difference. Way easier to install then. While I had the stainless Corsa
pipes out I polished them, way easier out of boat. No more dripping either.
