Default Jetty Rocker Rebuild

I've been putting off replacing my stringers in my 1975 (Jetty Rocket) for about 10 years and I finally committed. I'll try to post as many pics as I can. I'll also update my description since I swapped the Johnson 225 for a Yamaha F115. Once complete I have a Yamaha F150 that's replacing the F115. I have a friend that is helping me and he use to build boats in the Outer Banks a long time ago. I run a boat repair business that does everything but fiberglass work, so any helpful hints and suggestions will be appreciated. After cutting the floor out, I found out that the wood in the transom was bad too. I had the transom replaced 14-15 years ago and the the wood got water in it and was soft. So this time I'm using all Coosa Board. I got a sheet of 1 1/2" for the transom and sheets of 3/4 for the stringers and deck. I'm planning on using Bi-axle 1708 and polyester resin. I've put about 15 hours into grinding so far. I'm going to put a layer of glass in the hull before putting the stringers in. My first question is about resin and mat. I have Paxton, Donovan and Land-N-Sea suppliers that give me discounts. Has anyone used the Mar-Pro resins? Are all resins basically the same or is one brand better than the other? Also, the Biaxle Mat that I'm looking at is a 17 oz combination mat. The description says 17oz woven stitched to 1/2 oz chopped strand mat. The last thing I want to do is use the wrong combination/brand of mat and resin. I'm new to posting so I have to figure out how to post pics.
