After installing new inwales on my 1940 OT Yankee, I noticed a couple of slight kinks, for lack of a better term. A close look showed these to coincide with places where the grain runs out onto the surface.
I am curious whether this should be cause for concern; do such runouts constitute a weak spot that could fail later?
Regardless of the answer, I doubt whether I would go through the hassle of taking both inwales out and replacing them on this boat, but I would like to hear some opinions for any similar work I may do in the future.
Thanks
