I have been working on a 1982 Sea Ray Seville for the past few months and I am getting closer to installing the new stringers and deck. What I do not know is if I am supposed to grind out the bottom hull and apply an epoxy of some sort before I put in the new deck. I ripped out all of the foam that was in the boat and do not intend on applying new foam but I do plan on installing a marine carpet into the boat. Any help would be much appreciated as I am a newbie and really have no idea what I am doing. The picture below shows what the boat looks like on the inside right now since I finished tearing everything out. I will be applying resin to the new deck and stringers to keep them from rotting out but need help on the hull. Thanks for your input.
