#41: The Cause of our Rotten Stringers

Complete rotten stringer repair documented in vlogs at https://havewindwilltravel.com. Here, we found out why our stringers rotted. You want to know? Mud clogging the weep hole in our mast step which allowed water to sit constantly in the step and eventually seep down into the stringers because they were not glassed on top. Very tiny thing that lead to a very major problem. Warning, it might make you cry, or weep at least, to know such a small, seemingly insignificant thing can dismast a boat.
