Sad to see the damage to the boat, but good to see this issue getting some airtime. I’ve recently had some work done on my Boat – White Heron – by the guys at Nautique – to resolve some pretty invasive electrochemical damage. I think Chris McMullen’s advice is on the money and I’m hoping it will keep White Heron afloat for another 50 years.
