[QUOTE="68rs327, post: 417749, member: 8397"] Update: Got the boat all gutted and rotted transom removed. Now debating on what transom material to use and how to layout the inside. Was thinking about putting a small deck on the back, also thought about just leaving it all a open concept boat. Next step is to drill out the rivets on the floor, remove the aluminum floor and replace the Styrofoam and replace it with the closed cell insulation boat from Lowes or Home Depot. The Styrofoam is waterlogged and falling apart, which surprised me. Then I may get some aluminum tubing and frame the rear of the boat and put a casting deck/seat on the rear. Also, I got a sweet deal on a 18hp Evinrude long shaft outboard motor. Will post updates as I go.... Any suggestions are welcome, this is my first rebuild.
