Hello, Let me say that I'm a long time reader of this post. I need some help the deck is rotten in some areas and just sponge in others. I have been thinking of replacing the entire deck rather then piece it together. I already know that the transom is solid and it seems that the stringers are as well at least in the rear. Here are my questions..
1. 1/2" CDX plywood?
2. Epoxy or fiberglass Resin?
3. What size cloth should I lay?
4. How many layers?
Now comes the tricky part. I'm thinking of cutting the liner about 12" down from the cap and creating a 3 piece design similar to a Onslow Bay. There would be at least to supports on each side for support and to hide the fuel fill and mount speakers. If I make the cut then remove the deck and sides do you think the cap would be OK to cut in half in order to remove it. I know that I'm talking about alot of work but I will gain about 4-6" of foot space on both sides.
Thanks
