Thanks for responding, Bill.

I should have said in my original post that I’m in Chicago. The relocation cost would probably make it impractical for me to consider a boat from the west coast.

There is an F35 in Grosse Isle MI for sale, the broker is in the Cleveland office of RCR Yachts.

We looked at the F35 in Grosse Isle. It’s a possibility for us. The vessel has a lot of gel coat cracks around the portlights and hatches. Probably only cosmetic. But it’s something I would want to fix. I have to decide if I have the necessary ambition. Someone has also applied caulk to all of the bolts around the mast deck collar. So, I assume there’s a leakage problem to be solved there.

Silicone caulk around the mast collar is standard; that’s how it’s supposed to be sealed. It sounds like someone just did a sloppy job of it. The mast partners are solid fiberglass, so there’s not much there that can really go wrong.

7

Should there be caulk applied to each and every threaded bolt end and nut around the collar?

8

You shouldn’t see it, because whoever stepped the mast should have cleaned up the excess. But yeah, it should be there.

Photo attached. Is this normal?

Yeah, definitely a bit overzealous with the sealant. And they apparently didn’t think to have a rag handy for cleanup. But I don’t think it suggests an actual problem with the installation. It could be that someone didn’t use enough sealant when stepping the mast the previous season and there were some leaks, so the next year the owner went totally nuts with the caulking gun.

Again, the only issue this would cause is water damage to the bulkhead by the mast, and maybe the cabin sole in that area. Unlike with chainplates or other deck fittings, the deck in that area would not be affected by water intrusion.

Thanks, Josh! I appreciate your advice.

I have one in RI for sale.

Thanks, but too costly to transport it to Chicago. What do you have in mind for your next boat?

14

We just had a quote of $6,000 to truck it from RI to Florida.
I’m sure it’s less to Chicago.
I’d let it go for $40,000.
