I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on:( abrahamakim88@gmail.com ) for the full details.
Have a wonderful day
Thanks God bless.
Mr.Abraham

I've not heard of any issues other than early model 43s required a brace be installed at the quadrant. Actually the issue was discovered by Franc who happens to own and run…"

Beneteau 40 2008 replacement rudder bearings
Has anyone replaced the rudder bearings on a beneteau 40 2008/9?
