Floor restore

[Thehustler]

I am attempting to replace flor in my 94 caravelle. I am needing help on best way to remove old floor and best way to remove foam. Also any help on removing the top cap?

Leave the cap on if you can. It will help hold the shape of the hull, after you cut away the deck.

Use a skill saw set to the correct depth to cut most of the floor out. A sawzall, chistle, handsaw, sander etc to get the rest of it. Dig out the foam with a flat bar, wonderbar or whatever you have laying around.

Krakatoa I looked at ur pics and the 1st,10th,and I think the 15th looks kinda like the front of my boat that's why I was thinking I was going to have to take the top cap off cause the floor goes about a foot or so under the fiberglass and I don't know how to replace that wood or the stringers I am trying to upload some pics but it keeps telling me that the files are to larger thanks for any help or suggestions
