 More Wood Rot!!

After grounding our boat on Yeppoon beach I noticed that we has quite a bit of water in the middle of our port hull.  To inspect the hull I cut some inspection areas out of the floor to look for cracks.  No cracks, but more wood rot, his time in the keel.



Took all the rot out and replaced that part of the keel with Thermolite and then re glassed it and put a new floor in.
