Here We Go Again

How do you get the innerliner and cap off without sawing the thing to death.

If you look closely at my pics I actually did a lot of sawing I've never taken the cap and deck out of a 23 so I cant speak from experience. There are only one or two that I've seen done that way on this board. Fellowship took his cap off but not the liner. The main reason one would take the cap off would be for recoring it or adding a bow pulpit. The liners on these boats were embedded in cabosil when they were installed at the factory and they can be a royal PIA to break free depending on if it was a Monday or Friday boat.
To gain access to the bilge/stringer system most here have simply cut out the floor. That should give you all the access you need. If I was redoing a 23 thats the way I'd do it. The only reason I completely tore my boat apart was because I did not like the two piece construction. I gotta have toe space. There is a guy "Bonefish" who is doing a great job on his 23cc check it out.
