Asking for Free Advice for winter/spring projects,
Discovery has always been a little wet since I purchased her 7 years ago and she and I have made several updates to repair the years of neglect that caused spongy decks and leaky ports.
Project One: is to remove the stanchions and cut out wet core from the underside of the deck, leaving the top skin in place.
Project Two: is to remove the rub rail, repair any damage found along the deck/hull joint, add three fiberglass layers over the joint and replace the rub rail.
Expectations: dry bunks and better sleep
Rub Rail Source: TACO Marine
rub rail sizing: 1.5"
