Hello all,
There are reinforcing “pads” that are glassed in at the base of the small
bulkheads supporting the chain plates on my C&C 29 Mk1. Under the roving there
is balsa (mostly rotted) bonded to the inside surface of the hull.
Is it best to replace with identical new balsa core matting or do
I would talk to a good fiberglass person. Good boats these days are not using
balsa coring but a synthetic that won’t rot (one way to differentiate quality
on newer boats). Check out

There is a gadget, not sure what the correct name is, maybe called a
'line pole'...you simply place the outer loop on it and reach down
on drop your line on the pier cleat.
I have one but never use it.I just step off the boat through my
starboard gate where I have a line with
I might need a picture but I believe core material only has one purpose -
reduce weight. It isn't necessary. Wherever there is rot I believe you
can dig it out and replace with thickened epoxy. You can even do this to a
limited extent without removing the roving on the surface. Various

There is a another way to have the bottom paint removed.it is called
'dry ice blasting'.it is much cleaner and safer than soda blasting.
When I bought my boat in 2006, I had the bottom 'dry ice

Hi Bob
I started the season with 1.5 anodes. I’m in fresh water, Lake Ontario and St.
Lawrence river. I believe I have the correct anodes for fresh water. I really
don’t want to go the galvanic isolator route

Dennis; do you have any insight on the incident where a person was reported

Mike,
Just to make sure, you use Magnesium anodes, do you?

The boat was 34 feet. Does resemble a C&C 34. Maybe Ed Levert knows the
boat.

The news reported it as 34 ft but I doubt it. There is an extra port
forward on the cabin which is not found on a C&C 34. Don't know the boat or
owner. On line comments were that there was a line trailing the boat but
someone suggested there was no boarding ladder. The couple probably was
swimming.
My 34 had a port in the head compartment near the same location. Could also be
a 36.

Good points. What I was referring to is the new rigid synthetic cores that are
at least as strong as the balsa, are light weight, and won’t rot.
My concern with using wood is that if you don’t fully remove the wet wood, the
new wood will wick the water out of the wet areas and set up more/ futu

I’m not sure. I bought them at The Chandlery in Ottawa. I assume they are for
fresh water.

Mike,
I would not assume anything, unless you know what you ordered. They sell both
zinc and magnesium anodes. IIRC, when I was buying mine (4 years ago?), they
did not have magnesium and I ended up ordering it online.

You can use aluminum anodes in fresh water. That's what I use. They're
cheaper than magnesium.
To test for stray currents, borrow a clamp on ammeter. Then check the AC
line supply for your boat, and for the boats in nearby slips. The ammeter
should read zero amps. Use the lowest scale, as str

Whether the anode is the correct one or not it would not produce stray

Right. But if it is zinc, it would not properly protect your shaft or propeller
