Re: Center boards

Post by Martijn »

Hi,

I became an owner of a F35 UK CB this spring and I have a few questions regarding the centreboard.
I will have to remove my centreboard this winter, as it has become stuck in the case. This could happen because the previous owner made an "upgrade" to prevent the centreboard from moving in the case. I am planning to get the boat out of the water for the winter in the next few weeks and put it a bit high on the blocks so I can work on the centreboard. Does anybody have experience with this? How deep is the centreboard exactly under the keel? And can anybody clarify the original construction with the "rubbing pegs" as on the drawing in the manual or is there an alternative construction?

Thanks,

Martijn
