I have a 1999 Capri LS with soft spots in the deck that need repair. I have owned this boat for the past 12 years. Floor has become weaker over the past 3 years and needs repair over the gas tank and near the seat boxes. I have not taken out the carpet yet to fully assess. I want to know what I may be getting into first before tearing it all up. Need to get it back on the water! I am looking to find the cheapest repair and will consider doing it myself if possible.
1. Is there anywhere to find details of the stringers and how the deck might be attached for this model?
2. Is it possible to replace the deck or portion without the removing the seat boxes that appear to be fiberglassed to the deck.
3. What is best way to check condition of foam without tearing too much apart.
4. This may be dumb, but can I add decking over the top of the existing decking. Could I replace parts of the existing decking that may be bad and then put a new decking over it all (granted extra weight to boat).
First post... thanks for any help!
