1983 vector
Got the boat in July of 2021 and started gutting to rebuild. Built a jig to set it on and started cutting out transom, old core, stringer box and foam boxes and ground entire hull down with a brazed cup wheel and 36grit wheels on a 4 inch grinder. For transom replacement i used 3 half inch thick pieces of marine plywood bonded together with a wet layer of csm. Then put in a layer of 1808 where transom will fit then bonded the new transom in with a layer of csm. Covered that with 3 layers of 1808. Was going to delete the splashwell but being i kept the piece i cut out i decided to put it back in for its functionality. Once that was done i laid a layer of 1808 threw out the hull. Now im putting 1/2 inch balsa core in, started up in the wings and then did the pad. Bonded everything in with 2 wet layers of csm and covered with 1808. Thats where im at now, hopefully i can get the rest of the core in soon!
