I am finally about to rebed the keel on Freya (35MK3). The Torque table
indicates a value of 300 ft lbs for a 1" bolt. I have read a variation of
adjustments to that value if using antisieze "lubricant". I have Tufgel, so
I plan on using that. The values I have read regarding the torque for wet
bolts  vary from 56% to 80% of the dry torque. That results in a  range  of
anywhere from  228 to 280 ft lbs using wet bolts.

Am I on the right track with this? and if so, any comments on the
"corrected" wet bolt torques?

Thanks in advance
