Has anyone seen cracks in the gel coat around the mast step on the cabin roof? I just got the boat from a friend and noticed after a good washing that the cabin roof had cracks. The underside within the cabin is unblemished and there isn't any evidence of water around the mast step bolts in the cabin. I have stood on the roof around the base, it appears solid enough (I am about 220 lbs). I was going to:
1) Remove the mast step
2) Repair the gel coat cracks
3) Add a plate to the roof and underside (in the cabin) and resecure the mast step. Obviously I will water proof the plate on the roof thoroughly upon attachment.
Does anyone see a flaw in my plan?
