Suggest start with copious amounts of warm water to dissolve /
wash away salt build up inside.
re lubricant, various opinions,
some like WD40 oily things, work really well shorter term, but
these can attract further dirt as slightly sticky.
Some prefer silicon based, not oily, but need to use
infinitesiliy small amount (using rags to prevent over spray etc
etc) as any silicon on a boat seems to spread far and wide for
years and makes anything within metres really really slippy.
Some of mine, the aluminium had corroded inside and expanded, so
jammed them, initially can clean/scrape, worse case (not likely
looking at your photos) replace (mine had corroded so far to bend
the plate cheeks.

Some of the sheaves in the deck organizer turning blocks on our
Lagoon 400 are very stiff or frozen completely. To fix this
problem it looks like I will have to completely remove and
disassemble them ¡ª the bolts through the sheaves extend through
the deck. Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this problem.
To completely remove them do I need to remove the ceiling panels
in the saloon?
Thanks
