still working on that issue. i am putting in a call to mr. weaver at weavers marine service today. ill keep you guys posted. did you read my latest post about the sea cocks? i talked with w/ edwards boat yard yesterday and bill bissell jr said that they can tow her over in march, haul her, put in new sea cocks and then relaunch her. hell, while she is out of the water, i might as well have the bottom painted. i would rather edwards take care of it than take it to intercoastal marine again. it might be more expensive at first, but, since edwards is a refit yard, i tend to think they will do a more complete job. bill said that he wanted the boat for a MINIMUM of 3 weeks out of the water to let the epoxy set properly. that is NOT the answer i got from intercoastal. they said it would ''be just a 4 hour job''..... hmmmmm what do you think?

I drilled a through hull for my Lectra-san in August. I used 3M FC 5200 and it cured up fast. I had it back in the water the next day. No leaks.

I put in a new through-hull transducer with 3M-5200 and repainted the bottom and back in the water in 3 days.
