I think the leaks are confined to the centerboard trunk, have not been able to stop all with the epoxy putty stick.  This older model has access to centerboard only from exterior.   Today a friend swam under the boat and says there is no centerboard!!  When I contacted the seller, he claims it "must have fallen off during the launch" - is this possible???  If so, what's to keeps it from "falling off" when I'm out sailing?
