well I uncovered my bildge in way of the centerboard trunkcover only to
find 
the whole thing cemented over.  I get about  a  half a cup and  it stays
at 
that level but can't find where it is coming from. It may be weeping
through the 
cement.  I get a lot less now that I made repairs to the keel damage and

filled the whole area with two gallons of resin..  I also noticed the
hull is not 
terribly thick bellow the waterline as I could get some give as I pushed
on it 
with my foot.   I may add a 1/2 inch layer of cement or fiberglass to
give it 
some intergrity.  I think my boat is rather light compared to the later
ones 
so an extra couple hunderd pounds of ballest shouldn't hurt.
