GOOD NEWS. . . . The PICTURE UPLOAD FUNCTION IS WORKING !!! The tech folks at the parent company have been able to remedy the issue. You can upload pictures once again. Thank you for your patience.
I have 6x18" long by 2" high ribs on both sides of my keel. They do not join to the stringer. The wood has long since rotted away, leaving a fibreglass shell. Could I replace these with an upright stringer to join the hull to the floor in its place?
In pictures on the previous page, I can see what look like small boards glassed in place and running sideways between the stringer and verticle side of the hull. Are these what you're talking about?
