That is an anode for the V Drive

I believe it takes a 1 1/16" socket, and you will want the socket

Haha man, I could feel the pressure building! Glad you won't miss any time on the water. You better post some pics for those of us that still have 3 feet of ice on the lake!

Got it in. Now what is making me nervous is that it only threaded about half way in before it getting tight so half the threads are popped out. I am fairly certain it is not cross threaded. I didn't ever tighten to make sure it didn't screw anything thing up. I'll just keep an eye on it when I launch. Fingers crossed...

Will for sure. Already got a driveway pic with the pirate flag flying lol. Updates will come in a few hours....

If anyone out there reads this and has access to check, I would super appreciate knowing if anyone else has some thread exposed or if the hex of this bolt is flush with the v-drive

Could be some rust preventing it from seating

I'm almost positive mine had like a half inch of thread showing.

You need to put some pipe tape on it. This should be a pipe thread bolt which is slightly tapered and will not go in all the way.
