on the serious side - - - what are your immediate plans ?
a second closeup look at the hole in the floor raises concerns
that there is spray foam all under the floor ???
if so - ALL of it must be removed and the hull thoroughly inspected
for any soft spots, corrosion, holes that have been haphazardly patched,
sprayseal, flextape, silicone patches, etc. all those things could compromise
the ability to keep water OUT of the boat while on the waterways.
with kids onboard - two high capacity bilge pumps with a freshly charged battery
would be in my comfort zone. (on every trip out).
agree - a nice platform to begin your project with !!!
