So when buying our E35-3 the inspector found high moisture readings across the whole deck between the anchor locker and the front of the cabin. It was suggested that we re-bed all the forward hardware. Looking into how much work this would be including removing the locker liner I found people talking about the handle hole being drilled into the core. I just checked the boat and it does look like our hole was just drilled right into the core. Amazing. So I am trying to find out what people have done to fix this. I am inclined to make up a small amount of epoxy, cover the handle with seran wrap and then “engage” the handle and clean up any epoxy that comes out, sealing the hole from further water intrusion. What do other people think? What have other people done?
