Unfortunately, I had to haul Feya because of a leaking at the most aft keel bolt. The surveyor at the yard has determined that the boat was grounded at one time and there is at least one stringer that has separated from the hull. ( I wish the surveyor for the purchase found this). When the hull is sounded in that area, it sounds like there are marbles inside. The plan is to repair the stringer and rebed and glass in the keel. I will be able to bring the boat to my backyard and do it on my time. I will have the yard rebed because they will drop the keel and eval the condition of the bottom of the keel stub, and repair if necessary. They will also place shims to decrease play at the joint.
My question is, should the stringer be repaired before or after the keel hull joint? Thanks in advance. David Swensen Freya C&C 35 MK III Salem, MA
