15 lb, around the corner. Itis much easier. Too bad we had this discussion after they rebuild my starboard stringer which they built up with marine plywood over many long hours.... It would have saved me lots and lots of money If they would have used the foam instead....

I am not sure if you can see my albums but I just created one on the mast foot rebuilding exercise. Thnx for the interest. Will taker one more this wee with the butt plate on top of it all, if this does not hold....

Well your on a boat come on then!!!

Hi there, just wanted to thank you again for your time and advice. I just ordered the 10 lb foam ( or rather the yard did) and it will be heavily glassed over. I will put some pics on later. Also ordered fiberglass tubing for the limber holes. Thank you very very much. A bit unsettling that my own yard manager did nt come up with this but I guess that it is what it is... Thanks!!! Arjan

I saw your recent posts on painting. Thank you I learned a lot. I have a question for you. On my top sides I have some fairly thick anti-slip. Do I need to strip this off and reapply or just paint over it?

Thanks

Brad
