It's all over ebay if needed. I made my own out of a large socket.

That's the same one we use as well. We just keep it in the boat just in case.

I keep mine in boat as well, thats why I got the stainless version. I also recommend a prop block, make changes much easier.

I ended up buying this one too to keep on the boat. I also bought a couple other ones that allow you to use a torque wrench for work at home.

All stainless is nice, but this one a a piece of 2x4 as a block work fine for me.

Problem is, that will fit neither nut on a Bravo 3, at least not my Bravo 3.
1-7/16” is the outside nut size and 2-3/4” is the inside nut size on mine

I have the socket but the Chanel Locks work just as good no harm to the big fat nut. I am very OCD about my boat.
