[Rhodes22-list] Resolved: Trouble getting centerboard cap off

[Dana]

The centerboard cap liftted right off this afternoon.  It sat for a day and became loose.  The gasket relaxing over time must have done it.

Check to see that your pennent is not cleated in the jamb cleat, if so you
may be trying to lift up the entire centerboard which is still attached to
the cap.  
Good Luck

I have removed the tube and the pennant is now coming right out of the
centerboard cap.  There are no obstructions or fasteners in the way as far
as I can see.  It seems like the cap is just stuck to the gasket which is
just stuck to the trunk.  I was able to peel the front part of the cap up
because it is somewhat flexible.  Peeling it up the rest doesn't want to
work because it is so rigid.

 I can't remember without looking but I think you need to first remove or
disconnect the tube for the cb pennant which goes from the top aft end of
the cap, up to the bottom of the cockpit gutter just below the hatchway
where the cb line comes up in the cockpit..  It goes up behind the aft wall.

 see attached drawings

I have removed all of the screws from the centerboard cap and the front flat

portion of the cap will lift up, but the rear portion of the cap is stuck 
tight.  There doesn't appear to be any sealant on the gasket.  The gasket
seems 
very pliable.  I'm afraid to pry too much or do anything that might
compromise 
the gasket.  Any ideas?
