    Rehab SportCraft 222 1983 deep V hull cuddy walkaround

    Well those little stringers and bulkheads are toughies. But still getting at it. Angles, curves, odd shapes to contour the glass to. I did do full wrap of the first 2 areas but didn't attempt to do a hot on hot. Just too much going on in those little areas. So there are 8 "boxes" of which 1.5...

    New structure for fiberglass floor

    If you have already done this type of approach to date for repaires then you need to finish in the technique. In regards to the hull exterior you should complete with sanding, filler and fairing. In regards to the other areas that you can repair from the inside hull then again this approach is...

    This one is still kickin me azz. Boat came with no windshield but a hard top frame. Personally I like a pilot house/wheel house look. Probably gonna loose the aluminum frame. I found a cool boat the same closeness to mine and the wheel house styling is awesome not to mention the same...

    had a snow Holiday today. So got some work done in the boat. Then have to go down to the kitchen and make my famous lasagna; Got the areas cleaned up as I needed, vac/acetone and wetted out the new stringers and bulkheads. Also pinched in some 1/4" foam to get off the hard spots. Pics look alot...

    I sent this over to someone earlier on a post. Sounds like you may have it licked. Those "transparent" lines are the regulation? just wondering. cause can cause trouble later.

    Thanks Phelps, jc55 and ahmincha, I think I will hybrid the enclosure/almost downeaster/ almost pilot house/picnic table. I like the picnic table lol. They were some good points you guys made. Never thought of "modifying" the aluminum.. That would take the square out of it somewhat and allow for...

    1992 Stratos 2250 here we go again

    A walk around decap is a major$$ nightmare. I would srap her up, give her a good base and tear into her. You are talking alot of space, engineering, $$ and all that. To do it would be really crazy cool and I have not seen alot of rehabs be able to go that way for the points I listed above. But...

    So I always think to the later rather than what I am doin. brcuse that is the past and I address it as I need properly. Yup I'll sister up the stringers I chopped up. So the work is twice but the strength is better. Look at how the mfg chopped the crap out of the stringers to fit in the two side...

    Foam and structural weep holes back to transom?

    So, I've been trying to put my head around this concept. Typically stringers, bulkheads let water run back to the transom area where a bilge pump takes it out or comes out of the drain off in the transom/plug. So if I allowed all my stringers, bulkheads with drainage weep holes to proceed to...
