Re: fourwinds wind generator removal

Take bottom screws out and assembly should lift off of pole if nothing seized. Photo is of pole after removal. The plastic bushing you removed the screws from remains on pole. Not visible in photo.

Re: Osmosis.... Again

Peeled one years ago for owner. Not yard in Panama City, Fl. Two deep cuts and still rotten. Never did dry out. No amount of filling and coatings would be permanent repair. Beware. Phil

Re: Peeling a Hull

Peeled an old CL some time ago that admittedly had some old damage. Took 5 passes in some places at .100 inch each. Got down to a bulkhead in one place. Might be can of worms there. Phil Turner

Re: Any reason I'd regret sanding off my gelcoat for epoxy barrier coat?

Buy, pay or borrow a moisture meter now not later. Be too late later. Won't dry with gel coat on as the man says. Thanks Phil
