The seals that flank the centerboard when it is lowered are missing. Anyone know how to fix/replace them? Sailing in rough seas has become a battle with the water erupting into the cockpit from the c/b trough; the hydraulic lift is submerged and the cockpit becomes flooded enough to need bailing.

At the top of the home page, there are several links one of which is store. Click on that and then click on the Hunter parts and scroll down or put in the Hunter 216. If you cannot find it, then email them and they will respond.

In my old days I am forgetting the name of that tape but it is an adhesive on it. When you replace that tape, make sure you get the old adhesive off and you can use alcohol. DO NOT USE ACETONE ON THE 216.

Re: 216 c/b seals

OH, you mean the "official" Hunter parts site? I thought you had a link to another...
