Hi Joel, At the risk of belabouring the aforementioned topic, and I apologize for not jumping in last month... the "not a stringer" you are referring to in regards to the mast step is a girder. To recap, you are correct in the floors.. they run athwarships and stringers running the length of

Stevan, Not sure if the tube is necessary - the factory limber holes don't have them. Thought it was prudent to direct the water where I wanted it. Joel 35/3 Annapolis On Tue, Apr 2, 2013 at 2:58 PM, Stevan Plavsa wrote: > Ahhh .. so they are hollow inside? Do I need to go injecting epoxy an

Ahhh .. so they are hollow inside? Do I need to go injecting epoxy and making all watertight when drilling a hole for the PVC tubing? I'm guessing sealing the tube/hole at either end is necessary. I see now why the tube. Steve C&C 32 Toronto On Tue, Apr 2, 2013 at 2:32 PM, Joel Aronson wrote:
