[C38] thanks

[Phil Gay]

I am curious about Cabrillo's approach to fixing the "smile."  I have had
estimates here in the Northwest that varied.  Some suggested dropping the
keel and epoxying or 5200ing it back, others wanted to just fiberglass in
the keel stub to keel joint, while others suggested either sealing it with a
weaker more flexible polysulfide sealant.  I wonder if any one of these
works better.

Thanks for the tips Charles and Rich. 

We are going to level it tomorrow. The stands are on concrete and they are
going to build a cradle under her and chain her down. We had the smile
fiberglassed over 3 years ago and torqued the keel bolts, everything looks
good. We had it done in Long Beach at the Cabrillo Boatshop, they are
familiar with the C-38 if anyone else needs it done.
