I gutted and re-did a 1975 IB. The PSS dripless shaft log is great. I suggest you pull everything you can and get a moisture meter on everything and make sure its not soaked. As you have no doubt picked a unique boat, beware the advice from the outboard skiff riders...

...they dont understand this boat.

what is a moisture meter? what do you think are reasonable moisture readings? Tell me about yours Jeff H. got any specs?pics?

I have a question for all inboard guys out there.......what are the engine mounts made off, whats underneith that glass? are yours bolted in with heavy threaded lag bolts?

I sent you a PM. I'm bolted in, most of the boat is plywood covered in glass. Try to get to everything laid out before you start putting the parts back in her, not much room to work with if you have to go back in...measure twice, cut once.
