I'd drill from outside and see how wet the wood is, mine was dry, the wood was gone in the area affected. You can try to vacuum our some water but the urethane needs some water and will consume it in the reaction. It will also displace excess water as it expands. That's the beauty of urethane, water doesnt adversely affect it unlike epoxy that has to be bone dry.Scorpio, I ordered the materials needed for the soft spot repair but I have a question,
It says to get the water out, how do I do that step? Drill a hole inside the cabin and then a hole at the high side of the spot? The area is pretty long, it runs from the hatch over the dinnet to the forward hatch over the V berth.
Thanks! Great to see some new sparkle and shine on Seahorse!Welcome back T
Hello all. So glad to find this thread. I recently purchased a 1988 Weekender 300. She was never fit with the folding transom seat. Considering retro fitting. What is the consensus. Also after 30 years and 950 engine hours what is a good cruising RPM. I don’t want to beat her up at WOT. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
Pics and measurements would be wonderful--thank you! I think a colleague can make them to be ready for the next haul out.For the original swim step they are just ss tubing, clamped flat on both ends and then drilled for the two screws. There are 3, with the outboard two being a little shorter than the inboard support. I have three of them and can send you a pic with measurements tomorrow if you need them. I'm working to sell my old platform along with the supports so they are just taking up space right now. They would be easy to make if you have a vice.
