Subject: [Public-list] Toe rail


> We have had a ton of rain in Charleston in the last few weeks and to my
> regret I found that my port cushions are wet in both the v-berth and the
> cabin. I have checked everything and suspect that the leak is in the Toe
> Rail. It is original and has never been finished or sealed. I was thinking
> of taking it completely off and finishing it with cetol.
> My questions are: 1, If I take it off, will I loose the bend in the wood?
2,
> Do I need to anything to the deck joint? 3, I read some time ago that I
> should use delrin (sp) as the spacer for the stainless track. Where do I
get
> that and exactly what do I purchase? 4, When I reinstall, do I use a
sealant
> on the entire rail or just at the screws.
>
> This is a big project but one that I think needs to be done.
>
> Any advise is appreciate.
