>>The issue with the 20 hulls failing along the glue seam in the mid 90's was corrected and has not been a problem since. That was a post/hand finishing problem. The finising guys were sanding through the layup trying to fair out the seam because the glue jigs were mis-aligned.<<

Matt, what I find incredulus is over the period of THREE years (replacing THREE hulls sequentially),
it took 3 years (& 3 hulls) to figure that out?........IMPRESSIVE

What is funny is EVERY time/year, I replaced a hull, they told me the SAME story you told me for THREE years?

After the THIRD time getting the same story made me wonder, how are those finishing guys keeeping their jobs?

Holiday cheers,
