A few years ago I switched from 4200 to LifeSeal and have never looked back.
My opinion is that Life Seal and LifeCalk can do most sealing. I would
consider butyl tape for hardware that has the potential to move under loading
and unloading, for example, shroud bedding plates.
Be sure to overbore, epoxy fill, redrill, and bevel all deck penetrations
through balsa core.

Boatworks. I’m doing the easy stuff…leaving the tech stuff to
the pros! I’ve owned the boat for two years and rebedding hardware has
been on the top of the list since day one. I may as well paint the deck while
I have the hardware off…sound logic??

How do you intend on painting her? I heard of a guy over in
Somerset, MA that can spray on your finish. I saw a cat boat he sprayed
over at Somerset Marina about 5 years ago. He did a beautiful
job. I never got his name but, you may be able to ask someone by calling
Somerset Marina or Bridges Marine. I know the guy worked right up the
road at a yard. I can't recall the name... Sorry to be so vague.
I never thought to get the guys contact info at the
time and I was only at that Marina for 1/2 a season...

you're getting done! I'd love to jump into that job on my boat too.
I'm gunna piece meal it. This year I'll get the grab rails done.
Last year I did the all the hardware at the bow. Of course that
makes painting a job for WAY in the future. Pulling recently set hardware
sounds painful, both physically and emotionally...LOL Will you reset with
butyl tape? There is a great artcle on line about resetting hardware
and beveling all the holes.

>Mike,
>Yes,
it’s a Northeast 39 built at the Bruckman yard in 1985. There were
only a handful built between 84 and 86 designed by Rob Hall. Sailboats
Northeast in Marblehead, MA marketed the boats at the tail end of the IOR
days. I have seen one at Block Island and know of one in NY City.
Fun boat to sail…a little different than Cuckoo Voodoo!!

39 Northeast? Is that what you said? Looks very different than the
C&C39 in the brochure section.
