Figure 46 – Wedge Pack Assembly in Line with RRL and Hull Bottom<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on the selection criteria from\u00a0Section 5<\/a>\u00a0for mounting location, hold the Wedge Pack to the transom in the designated location. Use a straight edge to align the Actuator Plate with the RRL (shown in blue above) and the bottom of the hull. Two people should be available for this section to make holding and tracing easier and more consistent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For optimal Seakeeper<\/span> Ride performance, the Seal Plate must be between the RRL and 1\/8 in. up above the RRL. DO NOT <\/strong>mount the Seal Plate below the RRL at all. If trailering or forklifting the hulls are a frequent occurrence, it may be desirable to mount the equipment 1\/8 in. up to avoid excess contact with the trailer bunks or forklift. Alternatively moving bunks or forklifting the hull in a different location to avoid contact can be done to maintain peak performance.<\/p>\n\n\n
