I am replacing/repairing the strut of my 1978 Correct Craft Ski Nautique.
Does anybody have the factory measurements / dimensions that I could get my hands on?
Thanks in advance

If you need a replacement strut Buck-Algonquin makes has replacements. If the strut is bent it may not be wise to straighten it. Do you need the strut dimensions or location dimensions????
If have a source for new struts.

Not too much skill required. Just remove the prop, loose the four bolts from the strut, let the strut swing down on the shaft & slide off. To install reverse procedure & make sure you bed the strut & bolts with bedding compound.
