« Last post by RickK on Today at 06:05:00 AM »The boat was created in 3 parts - the hull, the stringer/bottom liner piece and the liner/cap. The stringers were created out of the boat and then bonded into the hull. The liner was created out of the boat and then bonded to the stringers and sometimes, hull sides. On my 170, the cap was part of the liner. The liner sides were not bonded to the hull sides. The cap being screwed to the top of the hull sides was the attachment point for the liner sides and cap.
