On my boat, the centreboard seems to have only two positions: fully up or fully down - down only because the rope handle interferes with the top of the case. If I try to set the centreboard partially down, it floats up
It is a carbon fibre board with presumably a foam core. There are pieces of thin plastic glued either side.
On other boats, with wooden boards, I have come across two methods of stopping board rising - adjustable pads either side or a piece of hose on the front edge that is compressed under a plate.
I have tried addiing a gash CD, but that seems to be too thick to fit into the current slot.
Can anyone suggest what I could use with my set up. I don't want to cut into the centreboard case if I can avoid it.
thanks
