2008 26M, Metric or SAE Bolts, Nuts, etc.?

Post by The Islander »

Does anyone know what type of bolts, nuts and fasteners where used to build a 2008 26M?

Are they all Metric or SAE?

Is it a mix of both?

Thanks, Ed

You can almost take the entire boat apart with a 7/16" and 9/16" wrench. At least that's what Cheryl at BWY told me.

It's true. Those are the ONLY 2 wrenches I've ever used. I mark them and have them at the top of my tool box ready to go.

A Philips screwdriver is the other tool you will NEED.
