Hi shday. I have a standard keel on my 7.6, and had to chip away the wrapping of fibreglass around each bolt/nut.   Did you have the same?  And how did you get at the bolts underneath the gel coated covering that crosses over aft of the table leg? (as in photo) Under that cover I suspect that is where mine is leaking due to discolouration.   Once exposed, I was able to turn the nut with moderate force just with a 3/8 drive ratchet, I was surprised.....
