[Public-list] rudder post leaking

[John Malthouse]

Hi All
It's been a while, but I keep reading to expand my knowledge.
Yes my weeping keel, well I discovered that through my bildge water/bilge 
cleaner was seeping out the bottom of my rudder post. So where water can 
come out it must also be able to go in when below the waterline. While 
cleaning my bildge I found some loose apoxy type material and once removed 
the bildge cleaner came out my rudder post and my drain holes in the bottom 
of the keel.
So I am also interested in rudder post removal/repair and what ever was 
patched in the bottom of my bildge, geuss I'll be removing my engine again
My A30 Mannin did not make it into the water this year, but I did remove all 
the osmosis from my A22 at the waterline and have had a great late summer 
sailing her on lake Simcoe.

John
