[Rhodes22-list]centerboard enlightenment issue

[FNuttersNY at aol.com]

well I uncovered my bildge in way of the centerboard trunkcover only to find 
the whole thing cemented over.  I get about  a  half a cup and  it stays at 
that level but can't find where it is coming from. It may be weeping through the 
cement.  I get a lot less now that I made repairs to the keel damage and 
filled the whole area with two gallons of resin..  I also noticed the hull is not 
terribly thick bellow the waterline as I could get some give as I pushed on it 
with my foot.   I may add a 1/2 inch layer of cement or fiberglass to give it 
some intergrity.  I think my boat is rather light compared to the later ones 
so an extra couple hunderd pounds of ballest shouldn't hurt.
