Does anyone know how the hull was laid up. I alking the sequence in which the glas was installed. I've got some sall blisters to deal with. It's unusual that they a mostly located inthe bow below the waterline on the starboard side.

Somewhere in the literature is a detailed layup of your boat. If you can't find it, PM Bushwacker. He has the same boat and knows where the articale is.

Take a look at the 1969 Boating Magazine test of the Seafari 20 in the Literature section. It has a very detailed summary of the laminate schedule on the 1st or 2nd page of the article, and the text of the article describes the layup sequence. There is also a copy of it on Carla's Moesly SeaCraft website. If you can't read it, PM me with an e-mail address and I can send you a very readable .pdf version I scanned. Tried to attach it to this note but the file is too big. I had a subscription to the magazine at the time so I still have an original copy of that article, as it's what inspired me to start looking for a used Seafari, which I found in 1975! Denny

Thanks! I had seen that and wanted to know if anyone had done their own repair of any hull blisters. Any ideas as to why the blisters would be concentrated in one area rather than equally disbursed.
