03 August 2009
well what i leaned from the bilge is that for one its not an easy job getting the keel bolts off, its realy realy Important to keep the bile CLEAN, bilge pumps are not cheap and floats for them are not cheap as well! have some good way to get into the bilge short of taking the sole up (i have to unscrew the thing...)
and pb blast is expensive!!!
