DIY repair of dingy tiller
I have tried (and failed) to repair a carbon fibre dinghy tiller already.
Now I'm going to ask for advice before my second attempt...
I need to fix a fitting to the carbon fibre tiller as it came off. My attempt was to fix about half an inch forward of the original fixing.
I also put Araldite on the screws before I screwed it on. I additionally bedded the cleat with Araldite to glue it on as well as screwing it on.
Unfortunately it came off again.
What I think I need to do is to put something inside to screw into. However the only access is the end of the tiller, 14" away. Any idea how I could clean the inside well enough to get some Isopon P40 to stick and how to get it in at all?
Any other ideas welcome.
