Hi, a section of my rubbing strake was smashed off during the storms last winter and I am now finally getting around to sorting it out. The trouble I have is that the old screws won't come out, they are loose and turn and I can push and pull them about half an inch. Could they be countersunk bolts with a nut on the back? It all seems very odd, I thought it was going to be an easy job of just unscrewing them, oh silly me, is anything easy or straight forward on a boat!!
