My 1975 Laser has a beautiful wooden centerboard that I want to continue to use. But it's suffering a bit from the ravages of time, as you can see:
For the overall finish, I feel competent to sand off the old finish and revarnish it; though any advice is welcomed. But I'm not so confident on the wood repairs.
This corner has a bad crack from groundings:
And there are a couple of places where the board is beginning to split along its edge-joints (is that the right term?)
How would you go about restoring this board? It goes without saying that it's critically important to maintain the original shape and size of the board.
