Question: John Goddard

Hi,

I live in Zimbabwe and have a Holiday 23 No 053 which I sail on Kariba.

When beating into the wind a substantial quantity of water gushes into the boat through the area around the screw ring for the wedge.

The wedge appears to lock the keel tight and there is no knocking of the keel when sailing.

Any suggestions as to the cause of the problem and the solution?

Many thanks.
