2nd day tear downLooks like the prior owner attempted a fix on the port stringerany advice is welcome. I have left a ridge around the perimeter for the new floor. I have also found why it was taking on water so much. My next steps are to rebuild the stinger (port) with epoxy. once she is sound i will ad the polyurethane foam..... is that the 4 lbd stuff?

Hows the transom looking where the stringers meet the transom? Have you done any test drills in the transom? What else you have planned? You are not exactly full of words on your postings lol

there is some dimpling around the fastener locations on the upper engine mount locations. but no flex and no drainage from the holes i've opened up.
I wonder how the Scarab faired in the hurricanes recently. Those islands got slammed pretty hard. For the scuppers you can seal the core with epoxy and then install the brass sleeves.
