Default Re: Stringer problems!

Dearl - Be very careful!! That boat is not supported at all without stringers, floor, deck cap or a transom. The shell cannot support itself and will fall out of shape. It might already be 3ft wider and 2ft shorter than it was yesterday. I'd put that deck cap back on ASAP if possible. Defintely before you put in stringers. The hull might have already bowed or developed a hook.

Can you tell I made that same mistake before???
