It's looking great. How much lighter will it be with the composite stringer/bulkheads compared with the plywood?

Not exactly sure, but were estimating 400 to 500 pounds lighter, maybe more or maybe less ? Coosa board and foam core is super light and rock solid. The entire new rear hatch only weighs about 40 lbs. I don't know what the prior weight was, but was planning to weigh it before and after rigging.

New chain locker bulkhead in the very front, and top for the second bulkhead for fender storage. The bulkhead in the foreground was also completed.
