1978 AMF Sunfish SUGAR 2 Guts

05 Jun 18:

A few surgical procedures on SUGAR 2, we removed a rotten halyard cleat backer block and scooped out about 20 pounds of we expanding foam from the stern.

Here is the rotten backer block. Also in the picture is a strip of the fiberglass that was used to reseal the seam years ago after some work was done. It is very brittle and starved for resin, not sure what happened but it failed all the way around the seam, and we removed it all.


This is the yellow expanding foam used to secure the white flotation blocks. It tends to take on water quicker than the white blocks and holds on to it longer. When we get a boat it is faster to remove and replace vs months of trying to dry it our with warm air.
