Simon. Your stainless gunmount tube should have a plastic liner, to
allow the pole to slide easily. My replacement method is: 1. measure
the inside diameter of the stainless tube. 2. Get a piece of PVC
pipe, the length of the stainless tube, but one inch LARGER in
diameter. 3. Lengthwise, slice out a one inch section of the PVC. 4.
Squeeze the pvc tube together, and insert the pvc into the stainless
tube. Since the pvc was originally one inch larger than the stainless
tube, it will exert outward pressure on the inside of the steel tube,
keeping it in place. Good luck and happy sailing. Charlie on Mobile
Bay.

Dave,Correct. Freedom 25 with a hydraulic vertical lifting keel. My
hull number/sail number is 129. I think mine is the only example in
the U.K.

Dammit
I want one! We're talking about the 25 right? Not the 24
which was
only made in small numbers. Were there any lifting keel
models with
