Found a pretty helpful series of boat repair videos on YouTube that I thought I’d share here. https://www.youtube.com/user/boatworkstoday/videos Seems to be a pretty knowledgeable guy and likes to share what he knows with DIY boaters. He also uses Paetron for those who want to get more interactive with him on their project. I’ve done that and am starting to get the hang of how it works.
I’ve got books and articles on a lot of these subjects, but it’s nice to see the work done and have it explained.

Looks like a good source. Wonder if I can stop the lazarettes from leaking...? Smile

Hi Rain,

There's ton's of info on the Brat site about Lazarette issues and fixes. Begeining in 2008 and there has been a huge push towards the manufacture's to be installing a proper laz, that is spec'ed for the mount and purpose they are using. Here is a link to the first one, with good pix and fix:

Here is a more recent thread:

Replacement Lazarette Covers (Again)

And another one that is relavant:

http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t=19694&highlight=lazarette+leak

Replacing my OEM covers with the ones Joel ordered was one of the first mods I did, and it was easy and effective. The different (new) covers have been 100% dry, always.

Thanks Harvey,
I am at the boat now, cleaning and learning. I have to do something good about these "wet lockers" but I have other priorities right now. You will probably see the boat before I get to that and can make,some first hand recommendations.
