Savagefirst,

I have that exact boat. You're my hero. I have come to the conclusion that if I had to do it over, it would remove all that (if posible). In the end, I think you'll save time.

Best of luck!

This looks like it is harder than just building a new one!! It was bad enough just redoing the floor much less everything!
How do you use Trakker and workmanship in the same breath?

Just a throught for other folk's in the future.

If you could make a scale drawing of the boat with measurement's on everything under the floor. That may really be a help to someone that need's to do some cutting in the future. The drawing could be posted on the FAQ page.

Thats interesting that they foamed the hull. How wet was is it?
And no keel stringer?

in the rear corners at the transom they always held water and kept the wood in the transom nice and wet,Im going to add tubes though the stringers to drain the water. Les

My deck was loose too on my 25' SeaCraft.....When I go in to do major surgery I may pull it all apart the same way. I'm know it's not held together like it should be.

Ntrain2k,

Did you get a chance to view my pictures? I havn't heard back from you on them. I know I forgot to measure the transom....Sorry about that! Too busy fishing.
