Cracked bulkheads seem to be more of a blessing that a curse, as when they are repaired usually it leaves the boat better and stronger than before….. Oh yeh' and alot of hard graft.

Old Ron's antennae must start to twitch when hosts ask if he'll be bringing a set of overalls.. God bless him for being such a good sport! And very nice to watch a master at work! Thank you everyone!!!

I'm a shipwright.. chopped strand mat shouldn't be used with epoxy it doesn't wet out well. ..and needs styrene to emulsify the csm that epoxy doesn't contain styrene that melts the binders in the cloth so you end up with a week repair… .that repair is full of air bubbles and porosity it should have a translucent appearance….polyester or vynal ester would be a much better choice…and wetting it out in situ is fine and you also need a consolidator for rolling out excess air ..in all a substandard repair…

A good temporary repair. I wonder if you considered temporarily wedging the gap so as to limit the range of movement. Perhaps one or two deck to keel ties (like stays) would be a good added reassurance in the future. Sailing a fully laden boat for long distances across oceans puts a lot of repeated stress on any weaker points. And although Florence is well built I'm not sure that the builders Oyster Marine or designer Homan & Pye, knew enough to factor in the repeated long term loads. Even Laser dinghy gunwhales fail when transported on a gunwhale supporting trailer, they are light, but the repeated bouncing on a small wheeled trailer takes its toll.

Excellent episode. Seeing cracking like that in a structural part of boat would of worried me .
