    Bought my first boat to cut, gut and rebuild from bow to stern, including engine. Killed my back and suffered the wrath of the fiberglass demons

    Just dropping in real quick. I made some decent headway this past weekend. No pics for now as I am at work and pics aren't coming through my emails for some reason. I got all the carpeting ripped out. I tried finding anything else that I could do in the meantime, but then I realized that I was...

    I am not certain yet. I won't be checking on that for a while. The wood underneath some of it is rotten. Not sure what that means for the foam though. The pieces are inside my garage now so they'll be safe and not collect any more moisture. I will look into proper seat coverings when the...
