Ok guys, got a couple hours this weekend to take some more of the boat apart, I leaned some interesting things here, for anyone taking one of these apart, it looks like the stringers stop at the bulkhead at the feet of the driver, you can see this in the photo, also, unfortunately it looks like the way the stringers were glassed in on this hull was a very poorly done job, you can see one of the stringers where there is a gap of about 1/2" between the glass and the stringer wood! It was never laminated to a uniform unit! Also I got the motor off, not an easy task for one man, but doable. That said, also attached here is a pic of the steering cable, despite its age, it moves smoothly and after a little wd40 on the coupler between the cable end and steering tube came loose fairly easily, I can attribute this I believe to you can see in the pic that there is a grease fitting that my dad ( who I got this boat from) installed in the cable ferrule many years ago, highly recommend this upgrade if it's in your skillset. With all that said, my next step is im going to take the windshield assembly off, then I'm going to take a high speed cut off wheel all the way around the inside where the glass overlay remains where the floorboards were to trim it down to clean and smooth, then separate the top hull from the bottom, once that's complete, I'll also slice the remaining glass holding the transom in since it's rotted too and clean that up, then get started on cutting a new transom board as well as stringers. I plan to glass the new ones in using probably 24oz woven roving as well as west system g-flex epoxy to install the boards, then probably finish coat with west 105/205 resin hardener. This may be overkill here, I'm not sure but I'd be real interested in hearing your guys' thoughts and opinions on the subject and a intelligent direction to go, thanks!
