I have yet another newbie question for you all. We have an '88 Glastron bowrider and have noticed what appears to be a board that runs the length of the boat and is glassed to the hull. The problem is that the fiberglass now looks to be hollow. Here in the southwest it has been very dry and especially windy lately. As you can see from the photos below, we still have water trapped below. I will be cutting this out to replace it as well, but wanted to get some feedback from you guys first.
Anyone know what I can expect, rotten wood or foam?
What is this piece called? I wouldn't guess it's a "stringer", for now I'm calling it the topside of the keel.
Anything in particular I should know about reconstructing this piece?
Here are the photos. First the one showing the forward portion of the piece which is circled in red.
Here is a shot of the muck splashing out when I step down on it.
