I am a new owner of a 75 Oday 20 with a small cabin and pull up centerboard in a sealed trunk.
Several weeks ago in high winds we hit a hidden object hard and the centerboard was then seen floating and banging against the boat.
We returned to the cove and I cut the centerboard free. It is still usable but the boat sits at a dock. I've had daysailers before this and used to things being accessible.
What exactly is involved to fix this? I can pull it out of the water and know I'll probably need a new pin but clueless on how to start on this. Ugh! Any help is appreciated!
