- Currently looking for next boat
While recently on the hard, I needed to run a power cord to the boat's interior. I ran it down the anchor hawse, but stupidly did not put a drip loop in the power cord and it allowed rainwater to dribble down the cord. The dribbles formed a pool on the forward bunk. Now, there is a small dark stain on the wood, where the water has apparently intruded.
Taking this piece of wood out to repair would be almost impossible given location and assembly. Sanding the whole piece would also be difficult because of one corner in which it would be impossible to sand (too tight). My question, is there a way to feather in the sand job and am I risking the wood rotting if I don't sand it out and refinish?
Thanks in advance,
Gordon
