    No, I read it didnt work that well for some people. Ive got a small leak at the keel. Nothing major and im going to drill out the solid rivets and seal it with 5250 i think it is and reinstall solid rivets again.

    Foam back in. Bracing in. Left the midsection open to build a cooler in the floor for lunches and drinks on the boat for the kiddos 😎

    Well half the foam made it lol. The lower 1" pieces were filled with years of water. Gutted it for new foam and adding in cross bracing. The 1/16 aluminum the used between each section is no bueno... and kind of a joke. I'll post more pics when bracing is done

    Pulled all the flooring and replaced today. May have lasted another season so I tore it out. Foam under floor was excellent. Before i rivet it down, im gonna add aluminum cross members to stiffen it up. Increased it to 5/8 thick. I'll post pics tomorrow. Haven't weighed it yet. Heres the old floor
