Hi James, I would remove some of the deck hardware around the mast and double check. I don't believe that the coachwork area is cored and where you see the issues it's than likely just compression damage on the Coromat. I.E I'm fairly confident that there's no rot and you could more than likely e

I did mine from above, as gravity helps and my deck had a few depressions where water puddled and mold grew. I needed to add some camber to the deck to avoid future puddles, so cutting the deck from above seemed better. > On September 1, 2018 at 7:54 PM James Bibb via CnC-List > wrote: > >

I assume the construction of the 34/36 and the 37/40 aren't that different so have a look at the construction drawings and other info at the link below for some insight on layups, etc. Ken H. http://c-c-37-40.blogspot.com/p/the-new-c-37-1988-c-3740-photos-c-3740.html?m=1 On Saturday, 1 Septembe

Thanks Chuck. I’d like to follow your experience. Are you attacking this from the top or bottom? It’s getting into the late summer up here in SE Alaska and I’m trying to gauge whether this is doable in the off-season. Clear, warm weather is hard to come by up here. I could tent and heat

Hi James, I replaced balsa core on my 34R around my mast collar back in 2007. I have to look on an older computer for my pictures. I wound up making a G10 boss around the deck opening and epoxying a 1/4" sleeve around the opening to protect the balsa from water. I find kevlar in every part of t

I use gray self fusing silicon tape for a mast boot. See: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_sb5TfIENvsUnBoN2F2Y0xkcmc It's nearly 10 years old now and going strong. I have done several deck "peels" to replace core. A vibrating saw like a Fein Multimaster or Dremel Multi Max is your best frie

Mine is a 37+ but I presume that much of the design and construction is similar. The design notes regarding Kevlar have it as part of the layup. I think Ken Heaton might have a better idea but the idea is that the Kevlar simply makes up some of the layers of matting/roving in the fiberglass. I wou
