Hi All you Spice sailors with much more experience than myself. Our boat has developed a creak when I (Helm) tread on the Starboard side between the footrail and the side. I would guess deck is now moving slightly whereas it was previously glued to the buoyancy material and ideas how terminal this could be ? no sign of any star cracking as we saw in the Buzz. |

take out the old glue en re do it with epoxy (and maybe cloth)... I dont believe these things are terminal... I had an old tasar with hull deck connection broken for 2meter length... Did the same.. even at the point of the shroudputtings... It was strong enough.. It can certainly be done by a pro...
succes. |
