74’ Seacraft 23 CC Rebuild

[Glosta23]

DonV - I looked at the link you shared and also the IG thread seacraftrenovation72. Great info and photos! Thank you.

A question I have is; why did you opt to entirely remove the stringers as opposed to cutting off the tops and hogging out the foam?

With all the changes you are considering you may want to consult my post of ESTIMATING CG SHIFT....... it is in a sticky. Original post was 9-24-16.
Best wishes on your project.

This is the best advice you'll read here based on your plans.

Thank you Capt. Terry. Great info and I'll be sure to do my calculations before hanging anything on the transom.

You are most welcome. I suspect others have been intimidated by the math or just decided to wing it. I made it as simple as I could- just plug your numbers in for mine. Certainly should be better than guessing. Best wishes and looking forward to results.
