Never touched the fire damaged stuff, no telling really, I was repeating what my glass man told me, your probably right Destroyer, (I will keep repeating)
 My personal experience was that the wind driven rain saturated the cardboard box the glass was originally shipped in. It was allowed to dry in the 90 degree heat for six weeks, still didn't cut it. I had it explained to me once, something to do with a binder or starch let loose in mine. I had gotten lazy and failed to put a third or so roll of mat back into the plastic bag it came in and we had a storm roll thru. I was nearly done with the project so I completed the project with sample pieces donated by Mini-Craft. My .02. There are smarter guys than me, I would try it and see what you got. Too many responses contrary to mine. A shame if you couldn't use it. I hope I am wrong.

Dry it out as best you can and TEST it before you start a job w/it...

That is the plan. Going to start putting her back together this weekend will take some picks. Debating on re-using the outer layer of fiberglass. I have plenty of materials to make it all new and think I will end up with a better bond.

I agree about a better bond grinding all the old glass to bare hull. It will take more time but in the end it will be worth it. You can use thickened epoxy to glue the stringer down and fillet the stringer to hull transitions. The glass will lay better too. The attic, that is a great idea for drying the glass. The wifey will appreciate you not using her stove...
