I recently acquired this boat. It had been sitting for at least 3 years, a significant portion of that time, it was not covered.
I anticipate Having to replace the floor, stringers, foam and transom. The hull looks solid and does not seem to have been abused or damaged. The interior is pretty much completely trashed.
My plans are to replace/repair the items listed, then build casting decks front and back.
My questions are about the stringers.
Is it feasible to replace the stringers without using wood, like a completely glass and resin stringer? Or will that add too much weight?
If a core material is the way to go, is there and alternative to coosa? Trying to avoide wood.
Any suggestions or insight is appreciated.
Thank you.
