    99 Larson 186 SEI Ski-n-Fish Re-Deck Project

    Thanks guys. The seat bases are done. The cotton was a bit difficult to dig out but I eventually got it all. The passenger side bolted up perfectly because I had recessed the t-nuts a bit more than the drivers side. No modification to the length of the bolts was needed. I had to trim an 1/8” or...

    I must have just not gotten a good mix the other day as the two batches of resin I made today both worked properly. I finally got both seat bases glassed in. I used the cotton and candle wax as recommended above to temporarily seal up the holes. I’ll find out tomorrow if it worked although I...

    Another five weeks have gone by without work on the Larson. I finally had a three day stretch to get something done this past week. Unfortunately, as usual, I didn't get as far as I would have liked. I discovered that I am apparently not capable of drilling a straight hole in 1.5" of plywood...

    Finally had a chance to work on it again today. Figured out the kick panels... 3 screws took me a half hour to find. Should make it easier to get the rotted deck out a bit further forward. Also got the rear bench vertical support boards out. I think I can remove the decking under the seat...

    SS- thanks for the replies... I don't think I have any pics of the interior after I cleaned it up. It really looks pretty good. The previous owner had reupholstered most of the vinyl so it didn't take a whole lot to get it looking new again. Starbrite mold and mildew remover took care of the...

    Port side in front of rear bench, foam removed. This is where I found the two holes cut into the bottom edge of the stringer. (Vertical one in front of my foot) Inch of water sitting in here... Closeup of one of the two holes in the stringer. Looks like slush in there.

    99 Larson 186 SEI Ski-n-Fish Re-Deck Project

    Hello all, bought my first boat last week having owned PWC's for the past 25 years. Found this 1999 Larson 186 SEI SF with a Johnson 115 OB on Craigslist. For the year and price, I thought it looked decent enough that I decided that whatever gotchas popped up would still be in my budget. Took...
