Be sure the nut has not become detached from the long rod that it is either 
press fit or welded onto.Mine had similar problem because the press or welded 
fit had come loose after 20+ years of use.Took both to a local welding shop and 
had it re-welded for $20. He did it in a jig to ensure that the nut was welded 
perpendicular to the rod.Edson wanted about $120 for new nut and rod assy.

Hi and Happy Father’s Day to all Father’s.  I have a couple of questions for 
the list:
1.The wheel nut on my Edson wheel is constantly loosening itself while sailing. 
 Does anyone have a good fix for this problem so it is removable but does not 
loosen itself?  
2.  I am planning to install a high water alarm as required by my insurance 
company.  Is there any guidance as to the most apprpriate height for placing 
the sensor?  Below flooring?  Above flooring?  I already have a emergency float 
switch under the floorboards near the top of the curve of the hull ( above the 
top of the bilge) so not sure how this sensor should relate to that switch.  
Thanks- Dave
