Nice. Thanks for the pics, Wildman.

So do we think the wood is significant? I was thinking that if I am able to salvage the fiberglass of the center stringer, that I'll just reattach it, glass the heck out of it and fill it with foam. Oooooor, I have 4 sheets of "surfboard foam" that I think are about 5' long, 2" thick and 2' wide. Seems like this would make a decent stringer if I needed to shape and cut one out to be wrapped in glass. I was also hoping to use the foam for some lateral stringers in front and behind the fuel tank just for kicks. This foam I have is quite dense and hard but easily shaped and formed. Not sure what it would compare to, but it seems like itd be a great core material for some parts. Probably not strong enough for a transom though??
