Hi Marek give me a call I may be interested in the job number is in the hand book

Yes, probably because once cracked water can entre and the wood swells and has nowhere to go but up, so make sure it is dry before epoxying. The scraping out of the crack helps this
Gerry

Hi Alistair, this was a common problem with cold moulded boats and is caused by the wood drying and shrinking. The best way to repair it is to lightly skrape out the crack and fill with epoxy with a filler in. Hope this helps
These cracks were why I sheathed the hull on later boats.

Yes Stuart Crusaders are still compeditive at club level and Admirals Cup so go for it
Gerry

All of them!!

Hi Stuart, The 88 is a mod suggested by John Redding, they are fuller under the mast to make it plane earlyer . They are definatly quicker than the original shape. Hope this helps, Gerry
