Re: Separation of hull to stringers and ribs
There isn't any connection between the hull sides and the inner liner except for the joint at the rail. The foam between the two in newer boats might give the impression of being more solid even though the glass might not be as thick. Also, Will and I were discussing this a while back, that there appears to be some coring in the hull sides that does not go all the way back so it feels more solid where there is coring. Someone who has taken their boat apart could probably tell you more.
