I believe all you need to cut is the nut in two places, remove it and then the entire part will fall out of the hole. The trick is not to cut the cockpit floor so go slow and steady.

I bought a '74 Minifish with a steel bailer that is seized (both collar and the bailer cap) . Doused it with PB Blaster over the course of two weeks. Still won't budge.
I'd grind it off with a Dremel wheel, but on a Minifish the bailer is sunken into a recess which doesn't give much clearance along the sides.
Any advice on removal/replacement? For now my functional bailer is a 1/2 gallon milk jug cut in half.?

Six bucks for the Essentra plug... and 15 bucks to ship... ouch. ?But better than the cost of a replacement OEM brass one.

The link from Essentra looks promising; I'll let everyone know how it worked out when mine arrives. Thanks for the tip!
