Default 67 19' Bowrider conversion to bay style center console

Let me get this out of the way first. I know it's a shame to cut up such a classic Seacraft but a bowrider just doesn't cut it with us.
Going to put in a little broken shear and finish similar to a bay style boat.
Helped(mostly watched) my son cut out the floor and topsides out this evening.
I was amazed at the wood in this boat was in perfect condition. Zero rot anywhere.
Stringers are perfect.
Plan to raise the floor about 4" using laminated plywood on top of the existing stringers.
Going to go ahead and laminate the transom and then flip the boat over to get the hull in shape for paint. Much easier to let gravity help with the prep.
My son Brett is actually seacraft84.Will post pics as he gets along.
Lots of glass in this boat, very solid.
Had a Bohemi??? label on one piece of plywood.
