    Default Steering Servo came loose

    On my Revolt 30 the steering servo came loose from the hull. What is the best epoxy to use to reattach?
    Thanks,
    Tom

    I use System Three but West Systems is good. Really any epoxy is fine. The longer cure will hold better than the 15, or 30 min stuff. Did it break clean from the hull or leave jagged bits?

    If it's a clean break like mine was, rough up the hull and bottom of the servo plate with 120 grit or rougher sandpaper, wipe with acetone or alcohol, then epoxy as suggested.
    I reattached mine a year ago, still holding strong. They didn't prep the mount at the factory...it was shiny smooth when it popped loose.
