New owner!! Have a few questions!

Thanks for the tips! Phatdaddy, it does have a 85 Johnson seahorse on it but it needs more work than it is worth in my eyes. I want to got to at least a 150 hp. It will be used as a duck hunting rig so I need plenty of go when hauling buddies and gear.
Destroyer, I appreciate the input. Where the floor is weak is where there are no stringers. I think the plywood backing under the floor has given up to years of use and exposure. I plan on pulling the cap off and fixing any issues. Looks like I will have to budget for a pour able transom material.

So seacast vs others that have been suggested?

Spent a lot of time with my roommate on Lake Norman when I was down at ECU. Love it out there.

If you remove the wood under the deck, when you replace the wood DO NOT use a single sheet. The best fix is to glue irregular rectangular pieces next to each other, (like a jigsaw puzzle) to the underside of that deck, then fiberglass a thin sheet of cloth over the whole thing to seal it from water. (The idea is to not have any long, straight seams. That will make a weak spot at the seam when being walked on from above).
