[QUOTE="mmf, post: 172661, member: 4379"] Did a little boat trading and got this a couple of weeks ago. I am skipping over the tear-out portion of the mod due to boredom, the boat wood was completely rotten (worm bedding) and pretty easy to get out except for the cheap STEEL screws tracker used to hold the wood down in their construction.

Had to drill off to the side of the self drilling hardened screws on many of them and knock them out. Here is a picture of the hull......
