Whitlock Constellation Steering maintenance

[MagicalArmchair]

One of the few things the great Bavaria expert and all round celebrity Tino has not done a video on is maintaining the steering!

I can pretty much guarantee mine hasn't been touched since it was new judging by the state of other parts of the boat - so it's now nearly 20 years without a service.

It does all look in rather good condition, and does feel very smooth.

• Unscrew the compass to gain access to the top of the wheel.
• Rotate the wheel and clean the chain with WD40?
• Regrease the chain with marine grease? Or some Light oil?
• Check cable and oil cable with light oil?

Or Crikey, do people undertake the below?
