Dave, The only way to do it is to use heat and a impact driver. A propane torch should provide enough heat. A impact driver works by placing a (in your case) allen head with a 3/8's drive and hitting the end with a hammer. Hitting it drives the allen head down (helping prevent slipping) and at the same time the allen head turned. If that won't do it then the right size drill bit and a drill press will! I'll be there for the race on Sunday bring it down and I'll look at it or I'll bring the driver and you can have at it.

I looked at anodizing mine and found out there is no one in the state that does it. There are companys that do it in FLA. but only for themselves. We can talk about how to get the old paint off and what to paint it with too.

Bout time you did something with it. You were bringing the "HOOD" down with that flaking boat.


Have Fun
