2007 Speedster water grate inlet bolt

[Andrew woods]

I have a 2007 Speedster . The water inlet grate has broken and I can't remove the rear bolt as it just spins.
Can anyone tell me if there is a nut inside the hull and how do i get to it .. Thanks

Yes I believe it does. If its like the ski's, most are under the engine. Use a wrench to hold the nut while someone removes the bolt.

Just looked at the parts list, the single front one has a bolt and nut, the rear 2 do not show a nut so its probably a threaded insert. You will have to remove the other bolts and pull down ripping the insert out. You will then have to remove the insert from the bolt using lock pliers and epoxy it back into the hull .
