I was checking the Black Sheep today and found more rot. I was moving it on its trailer and the end of the sternpost broke off in my hand. This is a 4x4 so I should not be able to break it with my bare hands.
I've had other problems with this post but I had hoped that I had managed to dig out all of the rot and fill it in with wood and epoxy. I'm not sure if I missed some rot or if it is continuing to rot.
I probably need to cut the whole post out and replace it. This scares me since it is a major structural piece.
