[Public-List] Toe Rail Update

Happy Friday Everybody!
 Marcelo,Thanks for the reminder. I'll watch it again.
Gordon,
A. Are you sure you don't want to use wood?Wood certainly looks
better, particularly on our classic boats. Ayla is an early boat, SN
306443, without the molded rail.Issues: 1. I'm better with metal. 2.
I've never done a scarf joint. 3. I've never tried to steam bend
wood.4. I have no idea of how to correct for the deck camber as it
varies from the bow to the stern.5. I don't know where I can get teak,
that thick, locally. I'm nervous about buying it online, sight
unseen.6. I like the idea of having the genoa track down tight to the
deck rather than mounted to the top of a narrow rail with long
bolts.7. I like the idea of all those places to tie to.8. I'm not the
best about staying on top of the varnish. Of course that might change
after putting in all the work to build new rails...

B. I cannot imagine why anyone would put a bow chock three fee aft
from the bow? normally the are inches aft on either side of the
forestay? they?re useless if they are further aft.
I have no idea why the chock is there but I figured I'd ask...

C. Bedding the toe rail (whatever the material it is) is best done
with something you can remove later.
What would you recommend for bedding the toe rail?

D. Sealing the deck to hull joint is best done with something which
cannot ever be removed? thickened epoxy with a reinforcing lamination
of fibreglass cloth is a good way to do it.I like the idea of using
epoxy. The deck, from looking at George's images of redoing the
taffrail, seems to be about 3mm thick at the joint. How much glass do
you use? Do you grind off that much to start or just grind to expose
the glass and accept the build up? How far back (how wide) do you
grind?

E. Reconfiguring the stern to let water run straight aft is not a
practical way to let water off the deck? when the yacht is at rest the
lowest point her her shear is about 1/3 of her length forward from the
stern? that is were there must be a scupper(s).No question you are
right about the scuppers. The path off the stern is to allow me to
direct dirt and soap suds off the deck using the hose. My current
scuppers drain slowly. It's a minor nit but if I'm going to change
things... My slip is really close to Kohler Craft so we get all junk
from the planes flying out of San Diego International. We used to get
a lot of junk from the yards but they have gotten a lot better about
containment in  the last 5 years.
As always, Thanks for all the great advice!
Regards,
Greg

Hi Folks,
First, let me say thanks to everyone that has offered advice, both
here and via private emails!
I'm going to give it a try here at the dock and do it in sections.
Worst case, the yard behind me has a cradle on a track for hauling
boats that are too heavy for the crane.
I've decided to go with slotted toe rail (2807-24) and T track (2817)
from Crest Aluminum. At the stern I'm going to reconfigure the wood so
there is a path for water to drain straight back. I'll come up with a
scupper at the aft end of the T track. There needs to be room to
add/remove cars anyway. I'm still working on the bow. A router with a
carbide bit 'machines' aluminum rather well. I expect that the final
design will include cutting the extrusion so that a foot or so of the
side runs up alongside the stem fitting.
So three questions at this point:
1. What should I bed the extrusion with? I'm leaning towards butyl.2.
What should I seal the hull/deck joint with? I don't want to use 5200
as it's a PITA to remove and redo. I want something that works in a
caulking gun. I'm leaning towards Life Seal.3. How far back from the
bow should the fair leads be placed? I'm interested in what works best
on a mooring ball and with a bridle. Putting them close to the bow
simplifies the design but one I have is about 3ft back on the
starboard side. I'm guessing there might be a reason for it being back
that far. I have a bitt centered above the forward bulkhead.
Regards,
Greg

Good morning Greg, 

Are you sure you don?t want to use wood?

I cannot imagine why anyone would put a bow chock three fee aft from
the bow? normally the are inches aft on either side of the forestay?
they?re useless if they are further aft.

Bedding the toe rail (whatever the material it is) is best done with

Sealing the deck to hull joint is best done with something which
cannot ever be removed? thickened epoxy with a reinforcing lamination
of fibreglass cloth is a good way to do it.  

Reconfiguring the stern to let water run straight aft is not a
practical way to let water off the deck? when the yacht is at rest the
lowest point her her shear is about 1/3 of her length forward from the
stern? that is were there must be a scupper(s).

Hi Greg,
Have you watched James Baldwin?s video on installing aluminum toerails
on an Alberg 30 on his website CYS Atom?  If not, I would highly
recommend it.
Best wishes,

Maybe we should take a survey of interested parties to determine what
size
production run we could afford.  I would be interested in a couple of
them
for Sookie.
