Missing Fenderliste / Rubber

[chipsylm27]

Hello everyone,

our LM27 lost 3m of the Fenderliste / rubber part around the boat. You can see the gab between the top and hull part. Since the boat is in the water, do you think that water can enter the boat? How would you solve the problem until winter when we can put the new rubber part on the boat (on land). Or is it possible to only put new rubber on the missing parts on while the boat is in the water?

Best regards,

Emily

Hi Emily. The “fenderliste” is not sealing in any way. It is only there to absorb bumps. The deck and hull are connected with a sealant in between, somno worry there. A friend of mine had the same problem some years ago and had attached a tyre from a bicycle. Be aware, when times come to renew the fenderliste. It is a hard work!

Hi Jandane,

Thanks for the advice. The idea with the bicycle tyre is great, thank you.
