Acetone seemed to dry the surface but only if you really scrubbed it. More about the boat though: included were some old brochures and the original sail numbers, pretty neat stuff. Ever herd of a Laser M? Appears similar to a radial. Also those flame sails looks badass. I’ve never seen a picture...
Sticky/ tacky everywhere I can reach, solid though, not soft anywhere. Only the one inspection port so far. Boat is new to me and is mint, PO says it was only sailed maybe a dozen times since 1987 and always garage stored. The mast step still has all the gelcoat in the bottom of the tube so it’s...
So I just cut a port hole for a mast step reinforcement and the inside of the boat is all sticky. It’s almost as if the resin never fully cured. Is this normal? It’s a 1983 that seems very dry with no mast step leak. Shoddy lay up? Any other thoughts?
