Default Re: spider cracks on deck getting wider.

MJ,

I did check for soft spots and the floor seems very solid and no sagging. I weigh 250+, also with me and my two fishing buddies in the boat the floor is solid as can be. I suppose the boat being 31 years old has alot to do with the spider cracks. I should have been more specific when I stated "the cracks are getting wider". What I meant to say is that I noticed a couple cracks(near the first storage well closest to the transom area) were a bit wider then all the others. Also the wider cracks are about 1/64th of an inch wide, no really superwide cracks mostly spider line size. Maybe I am being to overly worried about the cracks but I figure why not try and fix them now before it gets out of control.

I will try and fill the wider ones with Formula 27 and see what prevails after that.

Thanks guys
