My guess is, the former.

And as part of that same question, is that transverse member completely
horizontal from settee to settee, or do some angle downward toward the
mast butt? I saw one where it was sloped downward, whereas mine is
completely horizontal. Was that other displaying damage, or was that by
design?
#55, built 1990.

Alright big question is where all these boats made the same and if
anyone knows of a different version. Allen your boat was number 14 what
year was your boat built? Wild thing was number 37 and may have been
built in the same year as mine.
Thanks,
Frank Albert

Bob,
My boat may have that new crack problem. I noticed last summer water
getting in to the bilge area. This fall when they hauled the boat there
was a crack right at the top of the keel right at where you would
suppose the keel to hull joint would be (however, in one of these
discussions someone mentioned the actual hull is lower, down the keel
like about 10 to 12 inches) and water from the bilge was seeping out.
That lower hull thing seems pretty strange and my yard says the keel and
hull joint are right at that crack. Their suggestion for this year is
to snug up the keel bolts and then grind out the crack and fill it with
5200, fairing it using alcohol. They said if that doesn't work then
next year they will remove the bolts and lift the boat off the keel by
about 3 inches. Their experience with this process has taught them a
couple of things. First most boats had the keels joined to the hull
just this way with a ton of 5200 spread over the entire top of the keel.
Second, 5200 really does not want to let go. They've had boats in the
lift like this for four hours with the only thing holding the keel up
being the 5200.
If anyone has had a similar experience I'd like to hear about it.
Thanks,
Frank Albert

I have a 1987 Frers 33 that sails and races on the Chesapeake Bay. I've
read Frank's response on your question 4 and only have a couple of
things to add, based on my experience:
The construction of the transverse stringer leaves a void below the
stringer that extends to the leading edge of the keel sump to which the
keel is bolted at the point of transition into the hull. I don't know
for certain if this will be true on all boats, as I understand some may
not have wood in the stringers, but where it exists, it creates a
potential structural weak point. If the leading edge of the keel at the
hull shows separation you will get a leak that will not only contribute
to deterioration of the wood stringer, but provides a path to the bilge:
the reason is that you are not seeing separation between keel and hull,
but a crack in the sump which, over time and load can create a tear in
the hull. This is one reason a fix from the inside is desirable and
that you should look carefully at the leading edge of the keel at the
hull. The fix is not as traumatic as the problem sounds. The other
thing to check is the keel bolts for deep crevice corrosion, as on at
least one boat (mine) there was a mismatch between stainless in the
bolts and nuts that caused substantial erosion of several of the keel
bolts.
Other than that, the boat is strong as an ox and a delight to sail and
race.

I am currently interested in purchasing a frers 33.
1) Can anyone update me as to where any specific coring issues in
hull or the deck area that might be consistent with most of these boats?
2) If I wanted to change out the wheel steering to a tiller is
this reasonable or does the installation look like a morphidite?
3) Any questionable electrical to look for?
4) Any concern on the design as it relates to the keel to hull
design or attachment. Separate from a bad grounding.
I live in the Chicago area
Thanks for any advice or information anyone can offer on "what to look
for"
Bob

provides a path to the bilge: the reason is that you are not seeing =
separation
between keel and hull, but a crack in the sump which, over time and load =
can
create a tear in the hull. This is one reason a fix from the =
inside is
desirable and that you should look carefully at the leading edge of the =
keel at
the hull. The fix is not as traumatic as the problem sounds. =
The
other thing to check is the keel bolts for deep crevice corrosion, as on =
at
least one boat (mine) there was a mismatch between stainless in the =
bolts and
nuts that caused substantial erosion of several of the keel =
bolts.</span></font></p>
