All,

 

I have a recurring bubble on the keel at the seam between the bilge stub &
the keel. Only on the starboard side!  It arrived last year on my haul out
and I had it faired and sealed only to have it reoccur again this year as
noticed on my recent haul out. I have not grounded since I have owned the
boat. It could either have been a bad patch job by my boat yard or I have
flex in the keel etc.  I believe to fix it I probably should torque the keel
bolts on my next haul out then patch again. I understand there are +/- to
torqueing the bolts?  If this doesn't work perhaps I need to grind and fare
the whole seam around the keel and wrap with cloth and use g-flex.

 

Any thoughts would be appreciated

 

Leigh Mathews
