    Help Me ID These

    I've had Tides seals on the 2002 Camano I owned from 2004-2008 and on the 2003 Monk 36 I bought in 2008 till now. The only time one leaked was after I had changed one and apparently didn't seat the new one correctly on the shaft it had a slow drip. I called tides and their rep told me a process...
