I need a photo PLEASE (Bayliner Capry Cuddy)

[yonipainting]

Hi everybody,

I am getting ready to tackle on replacing my deck and would like to have photo of deck removed before I start.
I tried to look through posts but didn't manage to find any photos of the boat I have : Bayliner Capri 1400 Cuddy (like the one you see me riding on my profile picture.

Thanks,
John

I don't have one but what specifically are you looking for in the photo?

Well I would like to see what am I dealing with under the deck and decide do I do a complete or partial replacement for now. I KNOW! It is better to do it all but my rot is just at the edge of ski locker.

The only reason I asked was because a lot of times it really won't help. You figure it out as you go. I support you on only repairing what is needed. Most times though it doesn't work out that way. Hopefully you are lucky and can do a local repair. I suggest starting in that spot and work outward until you can see what is what. Either way you still have to cut the floor. If you find it is localized then great. If not...replace the part of the floor you cut and motor on and save the full blown refurb for another day. It will not be any worse than when you started. Good luck and let us know how you made otu.

I have an 87 17' bayliner capri cuddy that I just took the deck out of. I will take some pics tomorrow afternoon and post here so you can see.

Thanks man, I appreciate it.
Are there no stringers on the outside of ski locker, or they have already been removed in this photo?

Re: I need a photo PLEASE (Bayliner Capry Cuddy)

Here are three more pics. Yes there are stringers by the ski locker look close. My stringers are in good shape so I am not replacing them. They are still there.

Well those are sorta small. I hope they help.

So, there is no wood under the deck other than what frames the ski locker?

Re: I need a photo PLEASE (Bayliner Capry Cuddy)

Yes that is correct. The only wood under the deck are the two stringers and a couple bulkheads. There is one more support that goes across the back of the ski locker just in front of the gas tank area bulkhead. But I accidently broke it so I will have to replace it.
