Hello guys, I started with a previously patched floor. When they cut out the bad spots they did not cut along the center of the stringer. I'm not a boat builder but coming sense tells me I will have a loose and probably unsafe boat if my floor is not solid. IE solid from side to side. Was hoping just to do a quick patch and go. BUTT.....What do y'all Think?

No help here but I have to do everything from the hull up on mine. Almost the same boat but I don't have front to back seats. Mine are wrap around

From your pictures looks to me like a deckover job, meaning they simply laid new decking over the old rotten stuff. If that's the case it all needs to come out and be replaced and reglassed. Also there's a very good chance that the rest of the structure is compromised.

take her to the hull and work back new transom and when you out on the water you will feel a lot better
