The boat is a 94 21dv. I can’t possibly imagine there was a method to the madness with the stringers having this crazy curve to them. I posted this to see if anyone else who’s re-decked one of these has seen this before. There are other questionable aspects of the build I will post pictures of...

Has anyone ever removed their deck and seen stringers this crooked? I noticed a curve in the two middle stringers way before pulling out all the floatation foam. Now that the hull is empty I pulled a string from to back only to find out the two center most stringers are 1.75” out of straight...

That’s correct Tom it is an old boat from the state of NC. The soft bow floor and bulkhead seem to be a result of an improperly sealed bulkhead hatch. I plan to strip the deck down to the stringers, assess the condition of the fuel tank and rebuild/ re-wire from there. I was astonished when I...

Here’s the newest addition to the fleet. Clean hull, trailer and outboard. Deck is soft and will be replacing this summer. Can’t wait to dig into this one. Anyone have issues with rotten stringers or rotted fuel cells? From what I understand parker usually does a pretty good job glassing the...
