You have to understand that my wife and I were always
outdoors fanatics so the boat is like luxury to us.


Your boat also has an interior that is original and holding up well.
That is like a luxury for Mooron, who had to rebuild his. I knew a few
people who removed thier plumbed heads as you did...just a lot less to
worry about for folks who don't cruise on a regular basis. I do prefer
a plumbed head.
That's the straight poop. Don't worry about Mooron. He's got his "head"
worried about things like this....

And the text from the Nordica 30 website...
"Wasted metal samples from the rudder - this fitting was ABOVE the
waterline! Lack of caulking and or entrapment of moisture within the
rudder caused this type of damage over time."

"Nordica 30, a mediocre boat today, a total kit boat in the future."
