Replace!
Hi Ben,
I wouldn't trust that without having it carefully X-rayed and examined by a competent surveyor. Even then I'd be thinking, "How long till crevice corrosion begins in those crevices?" and if I knew that that boat had been in the tropics, I'd just play it safe and get new ones. Every year I have to bite the bullet and replace something expensive on my boat. Every year I don't regret having done so.
Ben
