I have seen lots of things about how to fix deck/hull delamination but does anyone have info on how to seperate them to work on them. I had a tree fall on mine while it was on the trailer, basically splitting it half way across. The deck and hull were actually touching in the middle. At the time (2007) it was 24 years old and did not even have a scratch on the hull. I got it new in 85 (it was an 84) when I was 11 and have babied it ever since. It was always kept indoor in the winter and always stored with hull and deck covers. I used to race it but life got in the way. I thought the rainbow deck and sail were great when I was 11 but when I really wanted to race it, it stuck out like a sore thumb and the deck was too slipperly where the gelcoat was smooth to make room for the strip. I realize it will never race again but I think with some time I could make it sailable at the cottage. I realize it will be a lot of work, and most will say just go get a new hull but it is more for nostalgia than anything else. Any help getting it apart so I can really look at the damage would be great. I have posted some pix of it with the tree on it.
