This question is directed at those out there with centerboard modeled C&Cs.
After hauling for hurricane sandy, I noticed that there is a crack running the
entire circumference of the keel joint. but the crack seems to be too high on
the hull to be the actual LEAD-to-Fiberglass joint.
to explain.....I think when C&C made the centerboard models, they used a
"transition piece" or "filler piece" to make up the difference between the two
different keel joints.
For example, on the 35-3, the deep keel boat has a keel joint that is somewhat
angular (higher in the rear, lower in the front), while the c/b model has a
joint that is basically parallel with the waterline.
Also the deep keel boat has a keel joint that is only 5 feet long (along the
joint) while the c/b keel is at least 8' or so long (along the joint) .
So the question....has anybody with a C/B ever re-done their keel joint? how
big of a disaster am I into?
also....to anyone who's recently redone their keel joint...how much did it
cost? (including pulling the rig and restepping it)
thanks,
