Ahmet,
Yes, it looks like yours is hull # 5, built in 1973. I’ve seen hull # 1 in the Toronto, Ontario area and I believe it was #2 or #3 at Prince Edward Yacht Club in Picton, Ontario. Hull #1 has teak trim around the cut-out on the transom for the tiller where mine has/had a plastic trim piece. The steel backing plates probably were original. It looks like your floor liner was cut out at the aft end so the entire bilge was accessible, mine has two separate cut-outs for the back two bolts.

Once I am on the dry and have all the right materials. The purpose of this was to see the condition of the washers, nuts, bolts and bilge. At least now I know that the source of all the rust were 3 ferrous backing plates that were used, probably because of ignorance or sloppyness I don't think they are original. This is a salvage boat. I don't have one picture but there are 3 cutouts.

The rest of your repair sounds fine. If you look at the pictures of my bilge you will see that under the nuts are a stack-up of stainless washers. The number of washers will depend on if you have a deep socket or not. You don’t need lock washers, that’s what tightening to the proper torque is for, the 1½ inch nuts on the three large 1 inch keel studs are torqued to 350 ft/pounds. The ¾ inch nut on the smaller ½ inch stud at the front is torqued to 80 ft/pounds. Do not over-torque this one, it will break. On a different note, in your picture 11 it looks like the floor liner has been cut out quite a lot to access the bilge. I’d like to see a picture of the whole area to compare it to the picture of mine. Cheers Rick Taillieu Nemesis '75 C&C 25 #371 Shearwater Yacht Club Halifax, NS. _____ No virus found in this message.
