To be clear, GA boater Bondo and I are the only Mods that have commented or posted to this topic.

I will ask how you've inspected the transom and stringers to ensure they are sound if the deck is still in place.

Thank you. I stand corrected. Regardless though, I didn't come for the ridicule. This forum is great and has been extremely useful and informative over the years, but sometimes people who can't contribute directly, instead try to stir the proverbial pot.

Jcburt, I sent you a PM but for the good of the order, I'll post my method here too. As for checking the stringers and transom, I didn't use anything super scientific outside of what I've done in checking boats in the past (brass hammer tap method, drill,sample & refil method etc)
Not to mention the stringers at completely encapsulated and there were no penetrations of the FG skin.
Granted, I'm not a boat construction expert I have stayed at a holiday in express 😁, but no seriously I did work for hunter marine for a while building sailboats so I'm not completely unfamiliar either.
