Second that. When I rebuilt my keel sump, I had removed the keel bolts, and I
figured I should Re bed the keel at the same time. The boat was on the hard

could with the six cradle pads and cleaned out the

I did not use any bedding compound. Just used my angle grinder with 4 inch
disc to grind out between the lead keel and the keel sump. Created a gap
about 1/2 inch wide started from forward and aft about 2 feet or so.
Cleaned up the 2 freshly ground surfaces and washed each well with acetone.

Hello Dwight,
Did you use any bedding compound in the smile before you glassed?
I was planning on doing some tightening this winter and was contemplating
squeezing 3M 5200 into the smile before tightening and then glassing the
exterior of the smile.

I wouldn't get your knickers in a twist, but whenever you go to check them
you could do it.
Where I would not want to wait is wherever you have SS screws in aluminum,
Because that is a constant chemical reaction!
I have even tried to Tef-gel some screws in carbon fiber, like the screws

Nope.
I can recall torquing on my 39, I have a 3/4" torque wrench with a 4 foot
extension - I would have to put my left foot on the top of the socket
extension, and my other foot on the bulkhead while pulling on the 4 foot
extension, and that was hard. I eventually put Tef-Gel on the threads which
Sounds eerily familiar.

Sorry for double email…but the boat needs to be on the hard as well so keel

I should have driven down and got it. 350 pounds is a LOT. My arms are still
sore!
FYI – what you think is really tight with a normal extension is about 150
pounds, not 350. I have about 4 feet total to get to 350.
If anyone needs to borrow the torque meter let me know.

Touche's slip is on Bayou
I don't normally have any headsails aboard but my furling genoa. Like most
cruising boats, it gets used rolled all the way out, hardly any of it out, and
everything in between.
The boat is obviously faster with the racing sails that don't have a big round
obstacle as a luff assuming I have the

Those clam cleats were on Touche' when I bought it. Touche' was raced
extensively in the 70's. Those were installed by one of the previous
owners. I wasn't particularly excited about them at first but now I like
them. My trimmers like them. They're great for singlehanded sailing.
