Default freakin out 3 , stringers and deck

OMG - got the transom cleaned out and found the ends of the stringers.
One soft one not detected.
Cutting out back to first fish well.
Alittle anoyed with Mr. Hunt.
Removed bulkhead with my hand. It seems the fishwells just drain into the bottom. Seems like the fish wells should be connected with drains?
Any way trying to weigh the materials cost. The deck is glassed top and bottom... with another boat.
Don't really want to give up.....
Again worried about materials and my skills.....

Megan, like I said in my first post.. just take your time and stick with one thing at a time..otherwise the job will simply overwhelm you. You'll do fine.. The fact that you're even trying to do this job is a testament to you..

Or come and get my hull and then you only have to deal with the transom, plus you'll have a hull that is almost 20 years newer

Not sure how to do this. Its Megan, I live in Virginia. If I take this boat to the bone yard I have a trailer. Old enough to not have brakes?
Today I investigated how far up I would have to cut the stringerz. Alas I think too far. In front of the passenger seat maybe farther. Will cut out the last bit tomorrow. The cuddy is connected to the liner and married to the sides. I hinted to my son that someone might give us the same boat center consol. He said DO IT. He bought the first boat with money he had from a pony when he was littler. We wanted the money to stay in the entertainment catagorie. Today he was watching utube videos of striper fishing in RI. So far I have done everything I can with this boat. But as I have said from the beginning it has to be safe!
So far Sort of like the layers of on onion....
