I have an older 2000 boat, 16xxxx. She's faster than hell but getting a touch worn down around the edges. As of late, even with the wear strips around the mast, I'm pushing the wear through the gelcoat. Starting to see resin and fiber only in the mast step - especially around the taped areas...

Yeah, but the plate is soaked and worthless - nothing is holding.

Can't seem to find a diagram on where its safe to place the inspection port. I don't want to be cutting into a spine or weakening the boat. I have 2 to install in order to repair the boat. The first is to through bolt or replace the plywood for the hiking strap mountings. The second is to do the...

I'm having the same problem, but the epoxy jobs aren't holding. Would the plates ever get too old/moist? I dried it the last time for three days in the sun. Somehow still pulling it out. What's the solution for the through bolting proccess? where are you putting the inspection port?

It's called detached flow. Long story short, the water can't decide which side of the board to "release from" first. Two solutions, either sharpen down so that there is a pure separation point - or go the easy way. Three passes with a sheet of 600 down the edge turning the 90 factory flat edge...

if you're going to go through the effort of getting that far onto the board, why not just stand up and slide in as it rights? and wouldn't it have been faster to pull that boom over? that underwater things sounds great until all of us who wear spray gear and not wetsuits realize how warm that's...

how long have they been? i use a 48". if your hand agrees with the jr. get that, the fatso can snap if you ever slip on a roll gybe. it crushes easier than jr.

my upgraded deck cleats for the cunnignham and outhaul are stripping out. the plate attaches with two screws. Does anyone know how deep the wood is that they are scewed into? is it possible to simply place a longer screw in or should i attempt to fill it with epoxy/sawdust/glassfibre and...

1. steer with your weight. if it's breezy you'll never round the windward mark without your boat being flat or heeled to windward, the rudder cavitates. tacks and gybes are all about the weight as well. 2. remember that a laser coasts really well, so use it to your advantage if you're...

it can't be the labor, my north class legal has a label that says made in shri lanka. its probably just cause it's an olympic class.
