The Cape Cod Crusader

[FishStretcher]

This is the cockpit- (I stitched together 2 cell phone photos so it is warped)
I need to remove some wet balsa and fill holes. I drilled them out to get rid of cracked glass and get access to soaked balsa core. I plan to foam fill and put "water putty", then vinyl ester, then gel coat.
You can see the track of the bilge hose out of the left corner, across the deck and out the port side. The 1-1/4" hose was reduced and put thru a 5/8" thru-hull!
Oh yeah, and they couldn't be bothered to remove the wood decking they put in the cockpit before splashing it with stain...
