soft deck

[blunas2188]

I knew that this was probably the case and I would love to create a major project and do a total re-haul, but the funds are not quit there yet. I think the t-top should be fine considering three out of the four legs are screwed into solid deck (as well as 2 out of the 4 screws on the fourth leg) but I am just worried that someone will jump from the rail to the deck and make a nice new hole or do some other damage. The bottom line is that I would love to make this a project boat, but the timing is not great considering my bank account.

But would this patch-work be sufficient/worth it for the time being? Or should I not even be worried about it if a total re-haul is somewhere in the semi-near future (2-3 years)? Also, I think the transom is alright, we have an SF inboard so there is not much strain or pressure being put on the transom anyways. (however, this will definitely be part of the re-haul when it does actually occur).
