I'm one of the two guys with broken stringers, a design flaw in a Potter era build, too wide spacing between bulkheads in the 25. It still took 40 years, plus rotten bulkheads, plus some rough seas, before the design flaw showed up. Its a strong boat, no matter who built it.

Slacker here.
Each patient is different. I know someone or a great rigger has my thanks.
Almost everything except the transom cap was sealed. Seal this critical point of ingress.
It`s the sun and fresh water that kills them.
I`ve heard there were some adjustment periods when Tracker moved SC and Mako
to Carolina. Also heard there was a corporate leak while they were still in Sarasota and some workers were upset. Also heard some of that floated north.
True? Who can say. One patient at a time.
Happy with my lay up.
