Finally , back working on the deck replacement. 3/4 " plywood on top of the existing potter puddy gives a good height over to the left over ledge of the deck liner. Plan is to glass the 3/4" ply and then epoxy to 2" Nida Core and epoxy the Nida Core to the liner ledge. 1 layer of 1708 on bottom and 2 on top.
Might be over kill but I removed the foam about 2" deep and used the drill with Allen wrench to rout out under the top of the stringer. Poured with Arjay ceramic pour and sunk in the 3/8" bolts with nut couplings to thru bolt the deck to the stringer. Did this 2 places on port and starboard stringer. New deck will be chemically and mechanically secure. Center console and tee top will screw thru the Nida Core into the plywood.
Still figuring out the stern of the deck, going to keep this big access door, and storage box
