Early Tracker built Seacrafts

The transom on mine is solid as well so it looks like Tracker did a decent job in this area. I did have soft spots in the floor at all the console and leaning post fasteners. They used balsa core in the floor, plywood squares in the hatches and access panel on mine. The plywood was rotted and water logged on mine. The Seacraft ride is still there though

Did yours also have the 70 gal tank which was 5 inches longer than the coffin deck opening?
The extra 20 gallons or 140 lbs of weight is forward which I suspect was to improve CG, balance, and ride.

The glass work on my 89 20 is also surprisingly good, but lighter than Potter builds.

Hull shape can also be adversely affected by age/rot and trailer set up.
Bunks which fall short of the transom or too few rollers can do the same thing.

Many BW foam sandwich hulls look like the moon because of this.
