    1997 461vs transom rings access?

    How does a guy get to the nuts for the transom rings on a 461vs? I think one is a little loose would like to tighten it up a bit

    You can't see them through the round access panel in the splashwell?

    You may need to reach to those areas.....
    It's not what you can take with you,

    It's what you leave behind.

    However, on mine the nuts are on the motor side, but if the bolt spins where it goes thru the transom, I would reseal it.

    Oh, the only way to get to them is from reaching in from battery, oil tank, charger compartment
