    My Rotten Lady

    Bump #79 Well the rot was more than I thought. I had to cut the stringer about 43 inches from transom. This is at the engine bulkhead area. I cannot get behind the stringer to sister the joint as planned due to there is no access under the fiberglass floor. So now how do I make the repair?
