Hey guys,
This spring, once the weather allows, I plan on replacing the floor of my 1974 MFG Super Caprice and possibly the stringers. This is something I should have done when I originally overhauled the interior of the boat but that is now in the past. I would appreciated any help that you guys could provide to some of my questions:
1. Will leaving the engine on the boat cause anything to move on me (this is a brand new 115 Evinrude ETEC)?
2. Can I replace the floor and stringers without having to build a support for the hull (this will be done on a trailer)?
I have read the sticky post on the top of this forum regarding resins, fiberglass mats, foam, etc... so I won't bog you guys down with that, I have some what of an idea of what I am going to do.
