[QUOTE=flyingfrizzle;255370]I think if you are doing spot repairs it works out doing a re-core by pulling the skins in the effected areas but if the entire deck needs changing I would think you are better off cutting it out. You will get a better end result and can make modifications to height if wanted or any other changes. I think you will end up with a stronger deck as well done new. It leaves an option to build on a molding table upside down out of the boat for a clean finish that dose not need as much sanding and fairing if you go that route. Also one big thing is you will get to inspect the under side. You can check on the foam under the deck for water, stringer tops to make sure they are sealed with out holes, check for cracks or damage to areas hidden by the deck. When the deck is out you will be able to access everything during that window. Give me a call if you need any help. Sent you a PM.[QUOTE]

The floor is coming out. Just weighing the cost of all new material or recoring my old skin, which appears to be substantial. I will be raising the floor as well. Thanks for the help, guys!
