I think 1 sheet of 3/4 marine ply ($120) will do all the stringers. if memory serves me they are 3 " wide. I think I stack 3 pieces on top of each other. dont waste your time or money on the hard foam from homey depot it has no strength at all.

Thanks Billy-- sometimes it better to be lucky than good. Hopefully the fiberglassing comes as naturally as the grinding.... Did you use "last a foam" its the only foam I can find in 2" width. Its a core material on fiberglass supply.
We like the flat deck as well. Boat feels much bigger with the casting platform out. Did you make your front locker water tight? The only down side seems to be water getting in since you loose the drainage channels.
