Replacing the wood on my 11' Super Sport and am having trouble removing the spool from the end of the steering shaft. There seems to be a brass pin that goes through the shaft and seems to be keeping it attached but I can't figure out how to remove it as there is no notch for a screwdriver. Any help would be appreciated.
Have tried to attach a photo but it keeps rejecting my attempts even though the file size is 120kb. Can email anyone who wants to see it.
Thanks in advance,
Joel in Annapolis

From Joel
got the steering wheel off and pulled out a cotter pin in the shaft that was between the top of the console and the wheel. However, on the helm side there is still a pin that protrudes from the shaft on one side and is flush on the other that prevents the shaft from retracting. On the spool side of the shaft, I loosened a “1 nut on the neck above the spool, but that seemed to do was hold angled flange flush to the bottom of the console. Any idea on what I need to do next to disassemble it completely?
