i took my cl 11 out tonight for the first time and i noticed some water coming in through the two port holes on the centre board casing. are these ports easy to replace? i think the outer ring is cracked a bit.

also, do you know of anyone who has a used dolly for sale?

thanks.
Greg

Hello Greg:

The port are easy to replace, it just involves drilling out the old rivets, removing the old ports and re-riveting them inplace with clean rivets and fresh sealant.

They cost about 12.00 cdn a pop. Have you checked the centreboard pivot bolt, ensuring the rubber washers are compressed as to not allow water in?

Good luck on the dolly hunt,

Cody
