>> I removed the CB cap last weekend and found some interesting issues.
>> The crack had been there for some time, but started leaking badly mid 
>> season last summer.
>> I have attend some photos to augment this discussion.
>> I appears the crack in the cap was caused by the board swinging too 
>> far forward, so the top forward edge of the CB was forced into the cap.
>> It happened before I inherited the boat and it was "repaired" with 
>> silicone from underneath.
>> The two blocks under the cap are bolted with long #10 screws from the 
>> bottom and covered with silicone from the top - its ugly and wrong.
>> The two blocks attached to the CB itself appear to be for 1/4 line, 
>> and need to be replaced no matter what.
>> The system line in my system was 1/4 nylon twist,  and much too stretchy. 
>> So here are some questions:
>> 1. What size and type line is ideal for the CB system?
>> 2. Where can I find those blocks that fit in the slot in the CB?
>> 3. What stops the CB from swinging too far forward?
>> 4. The tubes, (pieces of hosing) appear to be clear hose - they may 
>> have shrunk, or were cut short on purpose, but are an inch short of 
>> the cap, and one is very warped - what are they supposed to be made of?
>> 5. What is the proper installation for the two blocks attached to the cap?
