This spring I bought a 1976 E-27, hull number 912, boat name Cantata, in Bayfield, Wisconsin. The surveyer report says that the cabin bulkhead has had water damage due to a leaking upper starboard chainplate. The recommendation is to cut off the bottom 4 inches of the bulkhead, and fit in new wood. It says that the bulkhead provides structural stability to the hull, and so must be reinforced. Has anyone had experience with this issue, or any ideas?
Also, does anyone have any advice or tips about rebedding the chainplates?
Thanks,
Neil Opstad
