Dave asked: " How do you get the foul smelling, deteriorating foam out
of the cross member?
I asked my friend what he did with his 33 MKII which had the foul
smell.....he said he had a contractor drill holes into the cavity and
inject a 3M product (don't know the 3M product name just yet but I will
ask the contractor when I see him) .....it seemed to work......FYI

Thanks for the input gentlemen. I would welcome any more insight and
look forward to Doug's 35iii photos, off-list as well.
I will add to the discussion the following excerpt from an email
reply from nick at Bristol marine, in response to my request for an
estimate on re-bedding the keel and filling the smile:

However, based on our long experience repairing C&C's, in particular
the 33 Mk II, 35 Mk III, & the 41, all of which have the ballast
attached to the hull at the end of a very deep keel sump, there may
be more serious structural issues involved, particularly if the boat
has been aground at any point in its life. The key indicator of more
serious issues are exterior stress cracks (sometimes obvious,
sometimes subtle) at the radius where the fin meets the hull,
particularly at the leading & trailing edges. Other signs of trouble
are cracks or delamination where the interior structural grid meets
the keel sump, delaminated tabbing at the bottom of the main bulkhead
port & stb, or signs that the mast step is sagging.
If in doubt, have an experienced surveyor familiar with these issues
look at the boat. i.e. Bill Provis, 416-801-5527 <tel:416-801-5527>;
Peter McGuire 416-809-2186 <tel:416-809-2186>; or Wallace Gouk
416-526-3845 <tel:416-526-3845>

I also spent some more time learning how to search past posts and
picked up a little more info, though one question not answered was:
How do you get the foul smelling, deteriorating foam out of the
crossmember?
Looking forward to getting mine further apart and - if nothing else-
reinforcing this potentially weak area.
Dave.
