Thanks for the reply. The boat has a metal toe rail. Inboard of the bolts, where the hull begings to curve downwards, there is a crack that, as I said, runs pretty well all around the perimeter of the hull. It appears as a balckened (dirt? mold?) cracking and is visible in much of the interior as a simple crack in the glass, with leak marks in a few places.
The more I think about it, it seems pretty serious to me. Since the cracking is below the bolts, it would seem to indicate major structural weakness in the hull, just below the joint. Odd in a well-built boat. How could this happen? Karl Krahnke Ft.
