lookingfor some advice. 1980 45ft grp heavy cruising ketch, all the wood on the vessel is in teak, toerails, bright work, interior etc.
I have discovered rot in the bowsprit and am looking for the best way to replace this. It is a fairly large piece on which the pulpit is supported, both foresails are attached and large cleat.
What would be recommended in type of construction? One piece or laminated and what choice of wood to use?
Unfortunately I do not have any decent pics to hand but hopefully these may give an idea.
