Here's the deal, I got this 14ft fibreglass boat that will likely need to be mostly gutted and definitely transom done.
Question is where to start, the boat is very heavy and I suspect is holding a good amount of water logged material underneath floor. I found a particularly large hole in the drain well after getting it home.
I think I will start by pulling rear floor and back seats to assess the damage, have a look at stringer integrity, fibreglass and work my way up from there.
On the transom...is it recommended to be re worked from inside of boat, or the outside? Thanks, this'll be my first time working with fibreglass. Fact is I am stuck with it now and would at least like to attempt a rebuild. I will be posting some update pics after I get started
