    Hello everyone,
    I have a 1954 whirlwind 12 foot plywood boat that I have tried to repair a leaking keel seam with Git-rot and a flexible epoxy from Marine Tex. As you can imagine it did not work. It would seem that there is significant play between the plywood plank that is sandwiched between the bottom and top keel boards. Please let me know what I should do to repair this Leak. BTW I really love this boat so please tell me there is Hope! Thank You in advance
