I "rescued" a 1960 Owens using epoxy, and new lumber bent,cut, and
tapered to fit. The Owens is a double planked vessel, and fortunately
for me the inner planking was perfectly dry, After I scrubbed the
engineroom with a solution of oileater, I found the planking sound.
The only reason I am stikin' my nose in here is I found a green
coating that I believe was Sherman William's Cupernol. It had done
yeoman service keeping the inner hull sterile. Don't know if it is
still on the market ot not.
Enjoy
