Hello everyone, I have water in each of the aft storage bins under the settees. When it rains no water accumulates, but when we go for a sail there will be a small amount of water in each bin. After I dry it out, it stays dry until we go for a sail. What I'm thinking is there is a leak in the seal in between the topsides and the hull seam, and sea spray forces its way into the hull on the down wind side. I was thinking that I need to tighten the bolts along the toe rail that hold the topsides to the hull. I've read online that you hold the screw steady on top and turn the bolt underneath. I believe there is butyl tape in between the hull and the topsides. I was thinking of giving each bolt a 1/4 turn. Is my thinking on this correct?
Thanks a lot for your help. Mark McMenamy C&C 25 "Icicle" Fort Pierce FL _______________________________________________ This list is supported by the generous donations of our members. If you like what we do, please help us pay for our costs by donating. All Contributions are greatly appreciated!
