    • As the seller of this boat, I must take exception to this post. I bought this boat from a well known builder who had sailed it with no problems. I have sailed it at club level and had absolutely no problems with water ingress. The buyer came and looked at the boat and was happy. If had wanted to see it sailing, that could easily have been arranged.   On collection, it was placed in the boot of a car  barely big enough to contain it, with the lead and keel left on. The buyer then informed me that he was due to take it on the next day back to Scarborough in a much smaller car still.  I don't believe that travelling in this manner did the boat any favours.  Mark contacted to me for advise and like the above posts I suggested using either Captain Tolley's or thinned resin swilled around the hull   to seal any crack. I do not know if he has actually tried  any of the suggestions.   As to John Taylor's unpleasant remark above "  They may compromise if shown the errors of there ways?"   The boat was sold in good faith and fully sailable condition . In fact the day before collection, I had assembled it to check it over and as I was not happy with the winch, replaced it with a brand new unit Hardly the actions of someone trying to shift a "lemon". Perhaps instead of buying my Lintel, Mark should have spent 3 times as much and bought the one currently advertised in the For Sale ads.  
    • Hi Mark sorry to hear you have been left with a bit of a 🍋. I have found the people involved in this hobby the totally opposite to your experience.   Like John says contact them see if a compromise can be achieved.   What did you get? Maybe see if anyone at your local club can help with repairing it 😃
