    Also is there a certain pattern I should use when putting the floor back down? The floor in this boat also crumbled when I took it out so I have no patterns to work off of. Planning on making a run to the plywood store next Friday. How should I calculate how much epoxy I would need to seal...

    These corners seem to be the worst of the rot. Any ideas on how I can avoid that in the future? Didn't seem like it was sealed good there before I took it apart.

    So the guy I bought this boat from gave me a piece of wood to use for a transom. Would you guys use it? Looks like marine plywood.

    So my plan is to replace the transom remount the motors and then take the boat to a marina and see what it would cost to get the motors running / tuned up. That may change once I get find out what it will cost.

    Also what's the strategy for drainage? I tore out 1 floor drain infront of the cabin door. Was that the only one? Anyone do anything different when they rebuild theses boats?
