After reading some of the messages. I see there are several members who excel in different areas of repair. I just got a 19' 1973 Cobalt needing repairs. I may not be a contributing member at first.
Thank you for allowing me into your clubhouse. My boat knowledge is extremely limited at this time. My primary problem at this time is the steering The cable came loose before and the previous owner tried holding it together with a piece of 1/2" copper tubing about 6" long , split, and held together with radiator clamps. I noticed there are threads where the rubber jacket connects. And that someone did try to screw it in. My question is: Do they make a connector that will cut new threads into the plastic and screw into the steering arm ?
