The Dereks have the 33-2, Graham, but same concept as the 35-3. Several of the 33 owners on the list have done substantial rebuilds to this area as well. I may have unwittingly dodged the bullet on this one. When I had my floorboards out this spring I noticed (finally) that quite a bit of the bilg

Hi Derek I did do some repairs to that area. Hence I am sure it isn't balsa in there. I'd be astounded if they used a balsa core in that area, it would be a pretty inappropriate choice... Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 On 2013-10-12 9:22 AM, Derek Leck wrote: Yeah I was told it

Hi Derek (s) I can tell you it is not a balsa core, the keel sump under the mast step is filled with a high density foam of some sort. Still smells bad tho' Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 On 2013-10-12 8:49 AM, Derek Leck wrote: What a coincidence Derek. My name is Derek and I ha

What a coincidence Derek. My name is Derek and I have the exact same boat and exact same problem. Apparently our boats have a defective keel sump. This is the area under the mast step. What I have learned is that there is a balsa wood core within the keel sump area. After years of use, especial

If Derek's "saucer heater" is one of these it probably does draw only 0.7 watts at 120 v. (90 watts). http://www.caframo.com/marine/marine_products_moldandmildewsolutions_stordry9406.php If it is a more conventional electric heater it probably draws 10 x that. Ken H. On 12 October 2013 08:36,

Hello Derek Based on the year I'm assuming your boat is a 35-iii, if that is not correct this info is invalid. The 35-3 has a cavity just inside the forward wall of the bilge, and water can indeed get in there and fester. It is about 2", full width, and all the way up from the bottom. So a
