Hi everyone,
I've been reading this forum for a while but this is my very first post
Here's the situation: I'm very likely to buy an old 32" sailboat which is going to be my DIY refitting project for the next 6 - 8 months roughly.
The main issue is a lot of moisture trapped in the deck core between the two layers of fiberglass which I'll have to fix by open it up, replace the core, and patch the holes with new fiberglass (easier said then done).
To do so I'll need a place where I can keep the deck shield from rain and direct sunlight so I was wondering if any of you knows a boatyard anywhere in England with a shed, or any kind of suitable protection, where I can carry on this project?
I was also thinking of building a temporary cover secured on top of the boat just enough to cover the deck.
Really appreciate any suggestion.
Thanks you!
