Hi,
I have a 1967 SF that's been in my family its entire life. I sailed it as a child and as an adult. A few years ago it sat on its trailer and a crack developed where the runner was. I just had it fixed and it looks pretty good.
I was wondering what is the best way to store it? I was thinking about building a rack for it and would love to know what's best.
Also the deck appears to have oxidized. I rub a little 220 on it and I can see a little of the original red. I was wondering what would be the best way to clean it up and paint it? I can get pics up tomorrow if it would help.
I am new at repairing this boat so I don't really have a clue about even the type of paint that I would need.
Last but not least, is there a link to doing a leak test? I did a search and didn't come up with the actual process.
Thanks in advance, Tricia
