I have not heard of anyone using Sikaflex. I would recommend G-Flex and
follow the prescription in the link below.

You're not wasting any time are you?! Forgive me if you already described
this boat defect but how bad was the keel joint that you are already
tearing in to it? Most people live with a smile for a few years, then
tighten the bolts and wait another few years, then if needed perform some
type of ad
Hi Chuck,
I used Perfection on my cove stripe 5 years ago, I just looked at it in the
yard today after pulling it out of the water for the first time in 5 years
and I still have... Perfection.
When I applied it 5 years ago like you, I picked the wrong time of day /
got direct sunlight and I had
Be careful with going too large on the wiring
conduit. If the wiring can move too much you will
get this really annoying slapping sound when the
mast moves around a bit, in an otherwise peaceful anchorage.

came across a spot on the starboard side, about 14-16" from the aft end of

Most masts have a wiring conduit riveted to the leading edge. When I had
the mast rebuilt last year the yard found black polybutyl. They stated
that the polybutyl was a weak-ish solution that could pull out of the
rivets and recommended replacing it with pvc. They fashioned regular
pieces of plu
I think the agressiveness is controlled by which roller cover you use and how
many coats. Practicing on a board before doing the boat sounds like the best
approach.
If I remember right Kiwi Grip is water based so no mixing and little cleanup.

Not sure if all the masts on the 1986 C&C 35’s, have a plastic insert. This
plastic cover covers the conduit wiring, which runs most of the length on the
leading edge of the mast. The plastic cover has deteriorated over time and is
in need of replacement. Any owners who have had this replace
*The PO of my boat had 2 thick coats of Interdeck (interlux) poured over the
entire deck of the boat rail to rail.
While it looked uniform and safe to walk on it seemed to be chalky. It seemed
as if it was not holding up well in the Sun and was deteriorating faster than
anything I had seen.
