Greetings all. So today I went to look at an '84 daysailer, having decided that a DS is to be my next boat. This particular example was in pretty much the sort of condition you'd expect from an all-original mid-80s boat, but one problem jumped out at me: the hull-deck joint was opening up just forward of the transom corners on both sides. Port side crack was approx 8" long, starboard was 12"+.
Is this a common problem with the DS? How bad might the fix be? Should I keep looking?
Thanks!
