soft deck

[blunas2188]

Well we know there was a bunch of water there because when we cut an access hole inside of the compartment (infront of the console) on the port side wall water poured out and the foam inside was soaked. Also, when we drilled the holes to secure the forward leg of the t-top, the two holes on the outside (towards the port rail) were wet, but the two on the inside (closer to the console) were dry. Could this be a bigger problem then I think and should I be worried about the damaging the stringers when cutting into the deck?

Also, does anyone know where I could find a blueprint of the stringer system and how everything is laid out underneath the deck? Thanks
