Edson Gold Wheel Nut - Make your boat go fast!

Edson Steering Pedestal Wheel Nut, Gold #673ST-1-14. 1in x14 thread
If all you have is a stainless colored wheel nut on your Edson pedestal, then you've gotta speed the boat up with this gold colored one. They list on Edson's site for about $55. Almost NIB

$15 plus shipping ($9 to lower 48)

Re: Edson Gold Wheel Nut - Make your boat go fast!

Paul,

What does that nut do for you rating?? Probably costs you at least 12 seconds/mile. But, of course you could paint over the gold with some "chrome-in-a-can" so that the tech committee couldn't see it, and continue with your old rating. But that would be cheating, so I'm gonna pass on this great deal!

Cheers,

Jim

"chrome-in-a-can" is clearly prohibited by the offshore racing rules and is somewhat tacky too.
