[THEFERMANATOR]

I'm no fiberglass pro, heck I wouldn't even make a fiberglass rookie. But I do know that the stringers are the strength in a non cored hull boat. Without stringers the boat would just crack apart to pieces as soon as it was put under any sort of load. From what I know teh stringers should be firmly atatched to the hull bottom to retain max strength and rigidity. I know BERTRAM and some others played around with hollow tabbed stringers, but many have replaced these with cored stringers due to flex and cracking issues with the tabbed stringers.
