bulkhead that needs to be replaced

03 August 2009
well im going to have to replace a bulkhead :( its the one between the head and vberth it is paper thin now and has wayyy to much flex in it luck me, its not a bulkhead with chainplates in it so im not going to worry about it untill i get her moved as the deck is still strong above it and all.
when i do replace it im going to use 1/2 inch marine ply that will be white and the side aft in the head will have epoxy on it and painted white over that. i will tab it in with heavy roving and WS epoxy.
