Winter haul out and servicing CD33

Post by Ryan T »

I'll be hauling Zenobia (CD33 hull no. 100) this winter to do some maintenance such as redoing the bottom paint, servicing the through hulls, checking/replacing the prop zinc, etc. I'm wondering if there is anything else I should do at the same time. What about the cutlass bearing? Anything else I should do while she is hauled?

>>What about the cutlass bearing?<<

Only if it needs to be replaced. If it's not worn, why bother?

>>Anything else I should do while she is hauled?<<

You seem to have covered everything... but think about whether depth and/or speed logs are ok. If not, you might need new thru hulls for a newer model.
