Hello all,
This is my first post to Planet Nautique as I'm a new Nautique owner
. While I've been boating my entire life, I've never owned a proper inboard. My 2017 GS20 needed new board racks fingers from the gentlemen I purchased it from, I installed those easily and they looked great. They even aligned well straight out the gate, meaning when I locked them inward under the tower speakers they both had right about 1/4" of gap between them and the speaker. Pretty perfect alignment.
Now I'm a little OCD about things like this, and we had a little low speed (less than 1mph) grazing with a covered dock we were renting over a weekend. Came in with the port board rack still locked outward and a big and heavy zup board on it no less (rookie mistake!). The board itself contacted the vertical support of the covered slip, not the actual fingers of the rack itself, and I thought most of this was absorbed by the bungie since the board did move some in the fingers while I hit it in reverse quickly. While all that was very low speed, I have noticed now that my port swivel rack now sits at 1/2" under the tower speaker as compared to the starboard at 1/4". No biggie to some, but this is where my OCD kicks in and I'd appreciate any tips, opinions, etc. on how to get these two back in alignment!
Sorry, no pics of it either, that would have been way to prepared of me.
Thanks all,
