All,
I have to confess at the outset that this is actually a question about my
Cape Dory 10 but in my own defense it could apply to my M-15 and I expect a
better answer here than on the CD forum (just my opinion).
So the problem is that my 1964 CD 10 has some wood screws that hold the seat
boards down and some of these have stripped causing problems. The teak that
the screws go into is glassed into the hull and I really do not want to bust
it out and try and replace it. Does anyone have ideas to "retapping" the
existing holes (maybe with epoxy??) without going to larger diameter screws,
which would not match the others and thereby somewhat spoil a very nice
looking original interior. My fear about the epoxy is that the screws would
not come out when I need to get to the flotation foam or hull under the
seats. Suggestions will be most appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Robbin
