"What is the best glue to use?"

Nothing wrong with brass D section rubbing strake!

The weight is in the right place ...

If your on about centreboard packing, Ovingtons sell some stuff affectionatly named 'Polar-Bear pubes' the name says it all! (white fluffy tape!) its realy good. If your doing it to your musto it will come the right size. To stick it on we always use evostick contact adhesive, 'impact glue' or something, although dont get the solvent free version because its crap.

cheers

Sorry, but no. I am talking about slot strips on boats with centerboards not the packing of a daggerboard.

For tips on packing daggerboards see

It's 12 years since I renewed the slot strip on a boat so I hope things have moved on ...

What is the best slot strip?

And

What is the best glue to use?

So far I have be recommeneded the Hawk strip and Thixofix or Sikoflex to stick it on with.

Any other recommendations?

Rick
