Over the past year I've been doing a major blister repair job for which I've sought advice under different entries in this forum. I had always heard that one way to deal with blister is to simply dry out the hull. Well, in the process of filling our ground-out blisters we discovered three that had not been ground deep enough - there was still liquid under deeper layers of laminate. I marked them for additional grinding, later, so as to avoid contaminating the rest of the places I was filling. I assumed that after a year, including a hot summer, these blisters would be dry. It turns out that one of them held it's fluid. So there is a lesson - even after a year of drying, including a couple months of hot weather, a hull may hold onto significant moisture.
