1973 sf20 - Crusty Craft

[Crustycraft]

Hey gang. A friend of mine picked up this boat for me last week. I'm pretty excited about the boat but it's definetly in need of a restoration. I can rock it as is for a few seasons but I'm considering starting a resto in the fall. The deck definitely has some serious soft spots and the transom has slight cracking and a transom support plate on it. My only concern is having any Stringer damage and what they really look like and what the actual configuration looks like under the deck. How would I go about finding photos of what a 73 sf-20 looks like under the deck?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Check out pages 2 and 3 from the link below. You should have two U-shaped fiberglass stringers. I have no first hand experience but there are a lots of informative 20' rebuild threads to study.

I've been checking out some of the rebuilds in here. Some pretty awesome stuff. However I haven't seen the exact layout under the deck of a 73. But I will check your link and I appreciate the response. Thanks SSPBill!
