(I originally posted this in the DS1 section and didn't get any response. I'm new to this group and perhaps this repair section would draw more response so here goes...)
I'm working on a Daysailer I (Hull No 18168, Class No 3320). There is some hull damage on the starboard rub rail, near the transom. Looks like it must have banged up against a dock or piling and broke off the rub rail mounting flange. (The lip that sticks out where the hull and the top side meet.) Someone made a rough repair long ago, but it is breaking away.
I removed the white rubber rail cover and under it is a grey, PVC strip that is stapled to the broken flange. Looks like the flange is actually in two pieces - one from the hull and one from the deck. Has anyone done this repair before?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you,
Dennis
