Boat/Marine torque specs

[philu]

Hello All,
I'm restoring a 1967 Larson. I wanted to know if there is a general guide for torquing certain things once re-installed. (ie cleats, rubrail, nav lights..etc) I'm some what mechanically confident but would love to set the torque on things coupled with loctite, Just like my Dirtbike.

Thanks and please let me know...

Those types of installations most likely use stainless screws that go into fiberglass and wood. No torque just tight. Loctite for fasteners probably won't do much to hold the screws but you can pickup a tube of Loctite epoxy which works well for holding screws.

​

Now if your cleats, rubrail, nav lights are attached with nut and ss bolt the loctite for fasteners will work. Again no torque just tight.
