Critchfield boat deck replacement

I acquired an older critchfield boat that I am unsure what type or year it is. They deck has some soft spots and I want to replace the deck. Can you split the hull on these boats or do you have to cut the fiberglass out? The boat is 17' with a split / walk through windshield. It has a 70 HP yamaha outboard motor. It looks like the fantail boats but the back does no go all the way around the motor and it has a V to the hull (it is not a tri-hall) . Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think others will be along to discuss soft decks, etc. A few more pics of the boat. Other perspectives, and then close in of the splash-well and soft deck spots may help you get more help. Cool boat! Happy boating

Trying to fix up an older critchfield boat. Don't know much about the boat. The deck has a lot of soft spots and I am wanting to try to replace the deck. Can the hull be split or do you have to cut the fiberglass out? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
