I purchased an old laser which appears to be in reasonable condition other than the Deck and the Hull are separating in a couple of places, up to a foot in length.I am not sure whether the Deck has been removed before or not. I was told to use Epoxy resin and matting to stick the two together but the adhesive that is currently between the hull and deck seems to be some form of semi-flexible, white adhesive/sealant (it can be cut out,with some difficulty,with a Stanley knife). Can anyone tell me whether this is the original hull/deck sealant and what it is? Would it be better for me to open up all the seams, clean out the old adhesive and use epoxy or re apply the same adhesive/sealant that is currently there?
Also does any one know whether there should be any sort of bulge in the hull where the mast would go ( it looks like reinforcement but original)?
All the best,
Rich.
