it still sounds pretty sharp when you tap on it, not dull like delam.

:: Do you have a delaminated inner skin? Really weird.

:: :: Here's what me and JP noticed while fixing our backstay
:: :: system. Our backstay, like most of the boats I think,
:: :: has 2 main attachments: 1 is the deck hull joint just
:: :: port of the tiller; the 2nd is on the floor of the boat,
:: :: where there are 2 little fiberglass bulkheads just to
:: :: starboard of the exiting scupper where the floor meets
:: :: the transom. There are little chainplates on each of the
:: :: little bulkheads. The starboard line of the backstay
:: :: divides and one end attaches to one chainplate and the
:: :: other end goes through a block attached to the other
:: :: chainplate and starts the fine tuning system. After we
:: :: fixed everything, one of us was below looking at the
:: :: attachments on the little bulkheads, while the other one
:: :: hauled on the backstay from up above. When the backstay
:: :: is on, the floor of the boat lifts!! And when you pull
:: :: it on and off, the floor just goes up and down. Yikes!
:: :: Does this happen on anyone else's boat? Is this ok?
:: :: Thanks!
