So getting the gas tank out is going to be a major pain !!!
Even after I get all that foam out I'm wondering if the tank will even come out. Do they put that tank in before or after putting the deck on? I did notice that the flange around the opening has screws all around the outside that didn't hit a darn thing. It's like the flange is about 3/4 of a inch to small or the framing for the tank is to big. I could use some input from people with experience on realistically what am I looking at here? If I get the gas tank out will i be able to fix any rotten stringers or bulk heads. As far as the bulk heads go is it possible to cut out the rotted area and piece in a new section? Or is this really a no no. The more I think about it the more I think it would be easier to take the deck off to fix all this, as a previous poster mentioned. I'm just trying to figure out how the heck I would get the deck off If I decided to go that route. Thanks in advance for any info |

That's a cool setup. The weather here hasn't been great. I still haven't gotten my gas tank out.
I've been shopping around for material. Who can give me the best pricing for the materials? I'm going to try and find some plywood locally. Worst case scenario I have to redo all the stringers and bulkheads. Transom area has already been redone. 31ft Scarab Excel 1 layer 3/4 inch bulk heads. Double layer stringers. I don't have any idea how far 1 gallon of resin goes. I was thinking about using poly resin and smaller cloth to waterproof the material. And then Epoxy resin and thicker cloth for the stingers / joints. I probably should try and get this thread moved to the fiberglass section. Any admins out there that can move the thread please? |
