tfrei Posted September 15, 2025 Posted September 15, 2025 I haven't posted on this forum for a couple of years, please tell me if you think I should post this elsewhere. I have a CS 17 that I bought used and sailed for several years. I upgraded the sails and mast to accommodate the newer sail plan for the CS 17. I have since moved on to a couple of different boats. In looking at my CS 17 before selling it, I noticed that is had some rot on the stern decking. I was forced to cut out a corner of the decking to see how severe. As best as I can tell, the rot was confined to a 25 x 1 inch strip on the decking, but it also extended to the cleats below and some of the sides coming up to meet the deck. I believe some good woodworking and epoxy could repair the boat, but I don't have the time or the space to do it. I live in the upper midwest and would be willing to offer the boat for free to anyone who would feel up to repairing the boat. Otherwise, I think the boat is in overall good shape. The deck definitely needs a repainting. Reply back if you are interested. Quote
