Home>Technical>Fuzz fitting
09/03/2018 21:48:00 Simon645 Posts: 2	I bought a boat with no daggerboard fuzz (just a loose bit of Velcro). Just received fuzz but where is it best fitted? Top bit under lip at inboard (upper) end of slot seems best. Bottom bit- should it be inside daggerboard cavity say an inch inside or flush with outer surface of hull? Obvious Iâ€™m sure if you have seen a boat with it fitted, but not to me. Anyone help? Tweet

Additionally I put some fluff vertically in, starting just above the bottom fluff - think of the following: if you put your centerboard in half way, it is not "locked" sideways, there is room to move it left and right (at least for me) By pulling it to one side and moving it down, you can easily scrape off the bottom fluff gradually Putting in some fluff vertically provides some kind of lead, protecting the upper edge of the bottom fluff. Sounds perhaps weird :-) - bottom looks like _\|_\|_ I hope this makes sense ... Tweet
