Yes, I did that about 15 years ago, I used brass inserts epoxied into the outside rails. Then later I did the sliding hatch cover by epoxying SS Helicoils into the teak. Bill Coleman Entrada, Erie, PA From: CHARLES SCHEAFFER via CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com] Sent: Satu

Curious if anyone else tried this? My cabin top handrails are bolted to a matching set in the cabin ceiling. They were throughbolted to each other using long bolts and nuts and the holes bunged. I removed them to fix leaks many years ago and want to install them now so I can simply remove the

First point: No offense to professional naval architects and surveyors, but I'd prefer a good boat builder look at the boat rather than an engineer. Engineers are dreamers and they draw lines on paper. Builders know how to build the engineer's dream and how a boat and keel should behave and

Trim it before you send it! There is a Robert Noyce in Annapolis, (410-703-5380) I saw a survey on a boat he did for the seller, so that survey looked pretty good, as in nothing of any consequence. I think he's an older fellow

Stephen: My first boat was a Ranger 26 that had been modified (the cast iron keel was replaced with an IOR-style lead keel). I discovered this after I bought the boat -- for a song, mind you, as it had been abandoned. We tackled a variety of projects, including rebedding th

That doesn't sound like anything that is supposed to happen. I would think of somebody could flex it from the outside while someone is watching inside, you should be able to see something. In any event, it seems like something that might cause it to fall off at some point. I would think it should b

You’re welcome! It’s an easy way to record other people’s ideas and share. I took a google stroll in the 25-2 and can see it was introduced not long before before and it is likely built in a very similar way to windstar, meaning a solid hull, a ‘spider’ (shop made structural grid bonded to the
