1971 Seacraft - Looking for a good and reasonable fiberglass shop Lower Cape Cod
 

Hi Folks,
I have cut out the floor of my 1971 Seacraft center console (Potter Hull) and found that the stringers were all in tact, no rot. The initial reason for the cut out was due to delaminated floor, which also lead to most of the butcher-block wood floor to be mush. The bottom fiberglass shell was in good shape, but needed to be removed to make sure the stringers were sound. Also the floatation foam is all in tact, no damage.
Here is where I need help. I am located in Harwich Ma. (Lower Cape) and looking for a fiberglass shop that can lay down a new floor properly, but at a fair price. I know I need the deck vented, also want cross supports, and reinforced areas for the above deck gas (40 gallons) and possibly a T-Top.
When I cut the floor, I left 4 inches around the outer floor, but also do not know how or what kind of a tool I need to remove the 2nd and 3rd layer, leaving the top skin of fiberglass?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I can not recommend Fib Fab in Orleans enough. Bobby is great, no BS honest guy. He does Good work, great prices. He has done other work for guys on here.
He builds boats and does repairs, (decks, rails, transoms etc). I know hes been doing a bunch of sail boat repairs recently and just finished up a dog house. Give him a call and let him know you did the grunt/grinding work! HA!

Roger Carroll boat shop. Chatham,MA

Second that.

We sub out to him sometimes at my boatyard when the projects are beyond our scope or timeframe.
Had him fab me up a new fuel tank cover for my 18SF last winter while I gutted the transom.
Nice guy, nice work.

Hi,
I have cracks in the deck hatch over the fuel tank on my 73 Seacraft Seafari. It makes the deck feel punky. Any suggestions on where to get another deck hatch or cost for repair?

Not sure on shops or costs (location?) if you have the work done by a professional, but here was my journey recoring the fuel tank hatch cover:

I don't believe this is the sort of thing you can just buy a replacement for from any vendor. Best of luck!

Where did you end up going for the glass work? I am ... in the same boat :D (on the Cape).

There has to be someone with a lot of experience working on restoring Seacrafts with the amount of them you see in the fleet, right?
