The gun mount parts I was given when I bought my boat were: The pole,
the sleeve, a fiberglass disc and a stainless nut.
Is there supposed to be anything else?
How tight is the nut supposed to be?
I tightened as best I could without using a socket, and the sleeve
tilts a bit from the weight of the pole when extended one way or the
other, making it difficult to slide through the sleeve when pulling
from the cockpit.
Any and all help is appreciated.
Thank you, Milo

Milo,
Do you also have all the blocks, lines, sleeve and spinnaker ?
Check this site’s archives for how to run lines, etc.

I have all the hardware - I’m just curious if the actual mounting hardware for the sleeve consists of just the fiberglass disc and one nut.
Thanks,
Milo
