thanks Venzo for the help. previous owner told me he reinforced that area. when we took the cap off we saw that he had used a 4" PVC pipe that was 5200 down to the stringers as reinforcement. no joke.
this previous weekend i cut all the old wood out of the floor and it kicked my ass! i advice to anyone to NOT use the epoxy method to harden up soft spots in boat floor. when i took out the back side of the floor, i could see my epoxy work had just gone around the rotten pieces of wood. not ideal.
i then cut the ply to size and wetted out the surface then applied poly filler with milled fiber to fill any viods. matt was applied then the wetted out wood, then lastly 1708. this weekend i should be able to install remaining wood and get it glassed in. from there i will decide whether to put another layer of 1708 over it.
