Details of above waterline thru-hulls
I did a short haul to clean the bottom and check the zincs this week and got a close up look at the thru-hulls. The left picture is the smaller port side thru-hulls, right is the stbd manual bilge and engine exhaust. Three of the four are showing radial cracks dispite being flush versions, covered by gelcoat and located quite far under the tumblehome of the stern.
The below waterline thru-hulls all look fine but you can't see very much of them as they are covered by bottom paint. I'm going to replace them all when I haul this winter.
