Hi there!
I just picked up my first Seacraft. Its a 69' 20ft Seafari i/o that I hope to convert to a CC w/ full transom and outboard bracket.
After stripping the boat down, from what I can see the boat has solid stringers and hull, and seems to have a good transom and floor. The fuel tank is sound as well.
The cap has seen better days though.
I thought I would cut the cap around the cuddy and begin removing the inner liner. I am hoping to put in a complete deck, raised a few inches, and keep it flat across the entire length to make as much fishing room as possible. The liner in bonded to the hull sides to create a blukhead support. Has anyone removed these?
Have any members attempted to convert a cuddy model to CC?

Thanks,
