Default New owner 79 Sceptre

Hello everybody, I have been a fan of Seacraft's for awhile and love the boats. I recently bought a 79 with twin ocean runner 150's on a bracket. Boat had been sitting for 3 years and the floor needs to be replaced. I have already gutted it and the materials are ordered from US Composites. I'm going with Douglas Fir and epoxy with 1708 mat. The transom area is rock solid. Someone did a hack job installing a bigger fuel tank. I am going to attempt a 1 piece floor that I can drop in. I have some fiberglass experience and have been using the sites search for some good reading. I live in Charleston,SC and have to wait till the weather clears so I can do this.(raining everyday). Any ideas are welcome. Thanks to all!

Two most important items are lots of pictures and lots of beer.

A few years ago there was a full floor done,by billythekid...do a search and see if you can find it. He documented it very well.

Lots of beer is in order. Raining ALL day makes it hard to do anything. Picked up 5 sheets of Fir today at the tune of 106$ each. As far as the bracket goes which is the best way to identify? Now back to my beer and template cutting under a leaky tarp. It's still better than working.
