I HAVE A LEAK IN A CUSTOMER'S ODAY 19"S CENTERBOARD WELL AND IT SEEMS TO BE CENTERED AROUND THE HINGE PIN. I AM ASSUMING ( I KNOW WHAT IT STANDS FOR ) THAT TO EXPOSE THIS AREA I WILL HAVE TO CUT OUT THE CENTERBOARD WELL COVER INSIDE THE CABIN. TO FIX THIS YOU HAVE TO EXPOSE THE AREA, RIGHT? IS THERE AN ACCEPTED AREA TO CUT OUT LIKE THE ENTIRE FLOOR OR JUST THE RISER THAT COVERS THE TRUNK OF THE BOARD? TO EXPLAIN THIS BETTER , IT LOOKS LIKE THE BOARD WAS LEFT DOWN AND THE TIDE WENT OUT ON TOP AND PUSHED A LITTLE , CAUSING A CRACK WHICH BRINGS ABOUT 25 GALLONS A DAY INTO THE BILGE. AT THIS POINT I ONCE AGAIN ASSUME I WILL HAVE TO REMOVE THE CENTERBOARD AND PIN ASSEMBLY AND WITH WEST SYSTEM EPOXY, REPAIR THE CRACK WITH HEAVY FIBERGLASS CLOTH ON THE INSIDE. ON THE OUTSIDE JUST A LAYER OR TWO OF THICHENED EPOXY TO SEAL THE AREA. DO YOU FEEL THIS IS AN ACCEPTABLE METHOD OF REPAIR FOR THIS NOT SO SIMPLE AREA OF DAMAGE? I'M LOOKING FOWARD TO YOUR REPLY. THANKS
