So...busting along today on KY Lake...and the centerboards starts to sing. For some reason it was a little annoying....so I only pulled it up about 5 inches... and it stopped humming.
So...I've got the original '69 board, which admittedly was in sad shape when I got the boat. So I sanded and faired with West Systems back to what I thought the shape used to be. Basically taking on dings and fairing the edges to be consistent along the length. The bottom 2/3rds of the board I went ahead and gelcoated, because it required enough filling in some gouges, that the wood grain wasn't so pretty. But the top 1/3rd looks nice...all woody lo0king.
So...where do I start to fair a little more (or add, etc) to nix the hummers?
oh...the round, wooden board. I'll get pics later.
