Tanker tail delam

[Hugh Jass]

Anyone else have this happen to them? I seem to remember a few reports of tails delamming, but the search function yields nothing.

Dantheman? Routter? Blaze_SSS?

Talk to me people.

edit: tired

[Yossarian]

nope, mine have held up fine.
Dan's blew up, but only after a season of 30 and 40 footers...

Kindly explain....

Not sure it's separated enough to rivet, but don't want it propagating more.

clean any crap out of the delam,

tap around the area so clean up is easier

Fill the crack/delam and the outer edge with JB weld,

let it dry for 24 hours, apply a bit of heat to make it happen faster.

File the extra stuff away

Ski and enjoy

Far out.

Thanks.

and
Dry with hairdryer or something if you live in a damp world.
Clamps are good

I'm guessing the very same procedure was done by Mntlion on my CMH's , which are holding up very nicely, BTW.

Clamps, ya they are a good idea too.
