Most likely keel bolt threads corroded. Only way they could find good threads
is by using washers. Surprised they didn’t suggest a more complete repair.

Wow. Thanks for the pic. I didn't realize it would be bedded that deeply.
It is amazing how water will find a way.
I was able to tighten and use WaterWeld, as suggested, but unfortunately,
the strut was not the major contributing factor to the water intrusion. The
aft keel bolt is leaking. It is
This may be helpful, it shows how the strut is bedded right into the hull.
It took several hours to carefully chip away all the fairing bog. Once it
was unearthed, it came off cleanly.

Price? WaterWeld is about $6 for a 2 ounce tube.
I know it works. I discovered a small leak below the waterline last year
while working near the rudder tube. Probably coming from a defective layup
around the tube. Slapped some WaterWeld on it. Hasn't leaked since.
I keep a tube of WaterWeld
Thank you, Graham and Dennis. I tried tightening the bolts to no avail. I
will give the epoxy a try. Any difference between water weld and Marine
tech underwater epoxy?

Yep, those 4 bolts are most probably the strut bolts. No big deal to drop
the strut a bit and re-bed it once you haul out. Until then try to tighten
them.
As I am a bit pessimistic about successfully stopping the leak by
tightening the bolts, go to an auto parts store or a big box hardware
Hi David
Ah, the surprises of a new (old) boat. Good times. Mine was leaking
seacocks.
Probably worth trying to tighten the bolts for the strut while still in
the water, I would. I don't see it making anything worse. Best access
to that strut area would be to shut off the port cockpit
My new to me 1985 35 MKIII was launched a week and a half ago. On the trip
from Newport RI to Salem, MA last weekend, the bilge pump was getting a
periodic workout. The water pump was leaking like a sieve, so as soon as I
could I replaced the pump ( seals to bearings was toast so beyond rebuild).
Thanks, Chuck and Alan. I had not planned on fully dropping the keel this
year. The boat is currently in Jamestown RI. I will be sailing her up to
Beverly, MA after she is launched. The mast is currently up,and I have been
quoted 500 each way to unstep and step. I was hoping to hold off until next

Doug,
Nice boat, but my search area is limited to Lake
Michigan. I don't want to even think about shipping a boat.
Thanks for the offer.

Richard — there are a few other lakes connected to Lake Michigan, if I recall
my geography correctly… :^)
One of the the largest dealers (if not the largest) of C's throughout much of
the 70’s and 80’s was Sailboats, Inc; they sold tons of C all over Lake
Michigan and more on Lake Superior.
