Thanks for the idea of just calling Bob Eeg for a CB price. Time for a little vacation anyway. Thanks again Doug,.....

I thought they were all fiberglass with a lead weight near the low end. However you can probably get a new CB from Bob which is fiberglass and lead for a lot less than $600. I have one of the new CBs in my M15 #310 and had to sand it down slightly to get it to fit but I am quite happy with it. Doug Kelch --- "Hughston, Larry" <Larry.Hughston@dgs.ca.gov> wrote:
To all. Have a recently acquired M-15 and the Center Board is rusted and shot. Does anyone have the most economical way of getting a new centerboard made of steel, sandblasted and powder coated? I only need to get the bare steel center board for this m-15 fabricated, I will have the sandblasting and powdercoating taken care of. Any suggestions appreciated. I was given a price of $600. for the fabrication, sandblasting and powder coating with re-installation. Thanks group, this a such a great site for learning about our boats, I am lucky to have this kind of access.
