Deck Recoring Project
For any one interested: I started recoring the decks today. Cut out the cockpit floor. I wanted to cut all of the section to be done at one time (the less days covered in fiberglass the better), but

Re: centerboard inspection on water
I am going to second Bob and Mathias that this is not a job you want to do with the boat in the water. Inspect the lowered board, yes. Disconnecting it, no. I'm not even sure if a marine engineer

Re: centerboard inspection on water
What keeps the boat from sinking? With all that water running in it is possible that the boat will lower itself onto your center board or somebodies limbs, no? This just seams like a bad idea all

Re: Hull #109
Hi Mark, Steves list sounds pretty good, and so does yours. Do the Comings. I just pulled mine and it was pretty easy. Just a bunch of long screws from under the deck and the bunch inside the cabin

Re: centerboard inspection on water
If you don't mind getting a lot of water into your boat I guess you could pull the pin. I really wouldn't recommend it. It took me almost 1 hour to get it back in even being out of the water and I had

Atomic 4 oil leak
It appears I have an oil leak on my engine as the bilge is filled with oil and the engine has no oil in it. It does not appear to be burning too much as there is no blue smoke coming out of exhaust.
