Hull minus the wood transom and some years the stringers with wood. are what make the hull worth redoing and customizing to your own taste. I have taken some Robalos and Makos apart from the 70s and the hulls are too weak, soft and full of water logged foam and wood from small failures in the marginal glass thickness. Oh and the rides are too rough. The potter or even the moseley sea craft hulls that had some wood in the stringers, Never had thin bottoms. Always more then enough glass. Sometimes a little sloppy but still enough there to rebuild. That is also why the Blunt bow ugly 233 formula was stretched and copied so much. Plenty of glass and a real deep V that never fractured made it worth so many other companies splashing the bottom and making it better then it was originally!!!! even tho the foundation or hull bottom started the same way as the sea craft. . A race boat hull.
