Decks

[Brian Rice]

I was just wondering what the going rate was to replace the whole deck in the 23' CC? If anyone has had this done recently I would like to know what the cost was.

Thanks.

I am getting the deck replaced in mine up to the forward casting deck. I am hoping to get a quote from the guy in the next few days and will let you know what he says. I know the new deck will be made out of this wood that has a life time warranty against rot. It is supposed to be great stuff.

I just wanted to bump this back up to the top to see if anyone has any numbers for me.

Had my deck redone this spring. There were soft areas on both sides of the console. Used a different method from what I've seen posted. I used a 2 1/2" hole saw to cut out sections (150 holes) of the deck skin, being careful to only cut thru the top skin. Made a tool out of a screw driver to scoop out the rotted balsa core( some of it was like mud). Drilled the holes close enough so that I could get out the balsa between the holes. Used 3/8" foam blocks for spacers between the top and bottom deck skins. Filled in the void between skins with 510 Multibond putty,putting the 2 1/2" deck plugs back in place. Covered the deck with one layer of biaxial cloth. Rolled on a coat of gel coat with non skid. Came out sweet, very solid-like walking on the sidewalk.I did the grunt work,the finish work was done by a pro.Total cost about $100 for material and $300 labor.
