Too Many Hobbies
Hi All,
Looking for a little advice. I've got a 1030's Shell Lake. It's in fair condition, but needs a recanvasing and a little rot repair. At some point in its life it was fiberglassed.
The Keel had a some rot to it, so I removed it and am making a new keel for it. Since I am new to wood canoes, here is my question. What do I use to seal the keel to the hull. I want to be able to reuse the keel when the time comes to recanvas. I thought I could use a marine caulk that stays flexible, or even silicone. Any thoughts? I want to keep it simple.
Thanks. I love this sight!
Paul
