#58: Corrosion You Cannot See
Not if it's hidden behind the rigging. Lesson learned here: If you're going to re-rig, pull and inspect all of the pieces. You'll be shocked at what we found. Bonus lesson: Lookout for that hammer. He packs a mean punch. Thanks to the boys at Perdido ...
#57: When Re-Torquing Keel Bolts: 250 = 180
At least that's the decision we made after we broke the torque wrench hammering these guys down.

#48: Bad News, Big Decision
Seems our hack job didn't really pass muster and we have, in the words of Brandon with www.perdidosailor.com "a lot more to do." So, bad news and now a very BIG decision to make. What do you think we should do?
