Good enough for me, will give it a try in the spring. Windburn is pretty dry, not much gets in from rain or spray. A very little gets in on the port side midship with the rail buried for a while, wipes up with a cloth. I shouldn't be bothered but so close to being completely dry ... Michael

All I know is that I, and others, have seen leaks decrease or stop after applying Captain Tolley's to the inboard edge of the toe rail. It may just be that the stuff is so watery that it finds it's way under the rail, possibly sneaks around the fasteners and works its magic. Whether it finds its

I had assumed any water intrusion getting in would between the deck and vinyl rub strip where there should be some butyl, or the rub strip and the hull where again there should be butyl. http://southshoreyachts.com/shop/cc-old-style-rub-rail-40/ Is the Tolly creeping down to those areas?

Grenada is lovely. If you are up for longer passages, you can also sail north to Dominica, Martinique, etc., all the way to Antigua, and back. That's assuming the rules of your charter allow it. The French islands are the best, imagine France in the Caribbean. Real coffee, good wine, and all other

Agree St. Vincent can be skipped. Kingstown is ok, but up the northeast side e.g. Wallilabou and farther north it gets sketchy. All the other islands are generally safe, but lock your companionway when ashore on Mayreau from Saltwhistle Bay. Cheers, Randy > On Oct 4, 2017, at 4:32 PM,

Yep. Just place the tip of the bottle in the rail/deck interface, squeeze very gently and go. Watch it get sucked into the crack. Again, don't squeeze too hard or it will flow out on the deck. You'll get the technique down in under a minute. First time, put 5-6 applications about 30-60

I used less than a bottle to go around my 37. I think it depends on how much butyl sealant is left in there / how many voids there are. Where there's a gap, it'll keep flowing in. On my toe rails, it went in only a little before pooling at the edge of the toe rail. On Wed, Oct 4, 2017 at 1:29
