Derek “keel stub transition”. Is this the hull-keel joint? That is a pretty normal problem on a C&C of that vintage.
“prop skeg”. Are you referring to the strut? If this is the case then is a very different scenario than if in other places. Have a surveyor look at both to determine if a problem with strut and if keel bolts and sump area are structurally ok. Likely these are easy fixes From: CnC-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Derek McLeod via CnC-List Sent: Wednesday, April 29, 2015 11:29 AM To: Dennis C. Cc: CnClist Subject: Re: Stus-List Hairline cracks in hull surface I'll take a closer look today at the boat. There are some at the keel stub transition as well as near the prop skeg? on the port side that I can recall.

Are they in the forward underbody beneath the V-berth? Do they run athwartships and line up with the bulkheads under the V-berth? Or are they longitudinal cracks in the hull to keel stub transition?

I don't know if they extend through the bottom paint or are more superficial, but they can be felt when you run your hand over them. It is painted with VC17 and I plan to recoat with that. I'm wondering how to best deal with the cracks? Does epoxy filler stick to VC17? I have West System products for other repairs. Sand down to the bottom of the cracks? I guess I then need to do 5 coats of Interprotect before the VC17?
