Lol aint that the truth.

Should be finished derigging it this week. The bottom half should be a breeze to get out, the exhaust tips have been leaking so its pretty wet. Im hopefully not going to need stringers.

In my 42 the stringers were butted up bare to the transom. Freaking retards.

Same with my 32,,,,,,

Great. Might as well plan on stringers as well. Guess i should drill some holes tomorrow night and find out.

I'd just start cutting out the transom. You will know if you need stringers when you get to the bottom. No need to cut holes in good glass. Just my .02.

Don't tear into it too much or you will have a huge mess to fix. Great boat and great find. Eddie knows the x numbers . How much did you pay anyway? did I miss the price somewhere

Na, i never put the price out. Just figured that was better kept between me and the previous owner. Didnt get much accomplished this weekend, decided to take the wife to a casino and help them with the light bill!

You could just check the stringers at the motor mounts.

You can hit it with a hammer all around and that will tell you if it's rotten. Better then any piece of chit moisture meter in my opinion.

They sound solid with the hammer. And my engine alignment was still perfect. Should know for sure this weekend, I'm starting surgery Saturday.
