Tech service bulletin- For 25 Seafari owners (and maybe others). Get rid of the hinges for folding the engine cover and fill them immediately, and well. (not RTV- use glass).
This was the source of deck core rot, engine bulkhead rot and general delaminaton on my 25. I now have to rebuild all that structure upside- down and in place.
My approach is to use McMaster pultruded square poly/fiberglass tubing and divinycel, but even with that to pull it back into shape, it is a lot of work that could easily have been avoided by ditching those hinges.
