Esquif Spanish Fly Help (shaping the hull)

Post by philinasheville »

I have one of the Spanish fly's that has a flat spot under the saddle and I'd like to fix this. I recall someone documenting a repair for this. I believe it will simply require yanking out the saddle, adding foam to the bottom of the saddle, shaping the foam to the contour of the hull. I know that once this is done and the saddle is placed back in the boat with the thwarts in place, the hull should shape out appropriately.

If anyone can help me find the link to this repair, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks!
Phil
