Stus-List repacking toe rails

2016-02-11 Thread Jesse A. Rieber via CnC-List

I am going to recaulk the toe rails and hull to deck joint on my 32' C  
After long consideration I will be doing this with butyl tape from Compass 
Marine.  I would be pleased to hear any advice I can get on this process, 
particularly placing the tape between the top lip of the hull and the white rub 
rail.  As I recall from my work on my 24' C, this rub rail material was pop  
rivited to the lip on the hull.

still quite dry and I have not torqued the bolt/nut in the 10 years I 
have owned it.

I tightened all toe rail bolts during Christmas vacation. None of the bolts 
spun as I tightened from below. This seems to have eliminated all water ingress 
from topsides. I would try that before I tore into the deck/hull joint.

It doesn't hurt to apply Captain Tolleys right to the screw head, it
seems to seep in and form some sort of seal, I did it on Alianna, at
first it's white but that goes away

I’ve been working on my C keel/deck joint too Dwight, even though I can’t 
prove the K/D joint is leaking. I have been plugging away at it whenever the 
mood strikes me; I find that the vast majority of the fasteners do not spin 
when I tighten them from below.

Any that do spin may subsequently leak. That is why the recommended 
method is to immobilize the screw from above as you tighten the nut below.

in there when mine was built and a selective area re torquing stoped

Just apply several applications of Captain Tolleys Creeping Crack Cure over 
several days and go sailing.
