Default Re: '77 Sceptre Rebuild

Here are some pics as promised yesterday...Please note where the inboard engine WAS mounted and give me some ideas about this. I want to add some height to them so that they will support the floor (deck...sole) whatever you want to call it. I will be moving the batteries (somewhere) and adding a larger fuel tank. I sure am glad I found some Tyvek coveralls!! (Still itching a 'lil though.) Another thing.....since it was an I/O, there was no center stringer...it ended about 3 ft from the transom, should I make a knee(???) to tab to the new transom when I get there for more support or should I extend the center stringer to the transom anyway??
