The area under the mast step is getting reinforced. Multiple sets of layers are going to need to be put down, but after each layer the area needs to be cleaned up; sanded and or in the case of epoxy the amines removed. Amines are an oily blush that rise to the outside surface of the of the epoxy product I am using. The area currently under repair is at the pointy end of the boat, so there is not much room. Whoopee is mostly a wide boat, so the area under repair is not as difficult to get to. I guess in a way it was good the centerboard trunk leaked. Its removal greatly facilitates access to the stem area.
Pictures to follow.
