Hi,
Just bought my self a new project, a early 1980 Chris Craft Scorpion 210 in need of stringer replace and a new engine.
Starting my first post an hopefully so that I can document the process and ask some question. Although will start slowly because winter is approaching here in Sweden.
Starting with a first question about structural integrity of the Scorpion and the floor. The plan is to replace the floor with fibre glass and polyester, but with some wooden details. Taking the water protection ability aside, what is the floors addition to structural integrity. For sake of argument would only the stingers and hull be sufficient for the structure stability on a scorpion?
Cheers
Jonas
