Well it has been a very long time since I pulled my sunfish out of the barn and thought about racing at Orleans, MA on Sept 25-26. Now I remember why I put it away, it was shipping water bad enough that I was getting shot out the back on Pleasant Bay.
Well I turned the boat on its side tonight and saw what I thought was a 3' long crack on the keel. I'd seen this before but thought nothing off it. Thought it was some kind of maufacturing seam. So I started to grind back the gelcoat and it appears to be cracked into the spine of the keel. Without testing I really think this is the source of my water???
Any how, can anyone propose the best solution short of setting the boat on fire?
Thanks, COMMANDER
