53 MY Repower, started!

[SEVEN]

Send or text me a photo. That’s exactly what I was wanting to do.

John, did you redesign the stern ladder when you ordered the swim platform? If so send a photo or two. I hate the straight up and down design.

You're not the only one. They are a lot easier to use if they lean a bit, or if they are set up sideways.

Got a $4600 quote for a new 36" platform which isn't too bad I guess. Divinicel cored to keep aft weight down with ply inserts where it bolts to supports to avoid crushing the core

Ply as plywood should tell then use coosa in those spots.

Excellent!

Are you staying with the OEM exhaust riser?

[Pascal]

No it will be too low.

Just got back from two weeks in the Exumas and went to the yard first thing today... quite a bit of progress!

Port engine was dropped in to work on mounts. Turns out the down angle of the new gears requires trimming the top of the stringers. I never realized the stringers were higher at the front sloping down towards the rear

Port side aft bulkhead has been repaired, shifted back in place and about to be glassed tomhull side

Rudders have been dropped, trim tab hole has been filled,new exhaust tube and hose about to go in

[Pascal]

Stabilizer hole. We re going to add some glass inside to reinforce the hull. I thought the bottom would be thicker

[Pascal]

Starboard muffler. On the port side I may have to raise the bed by a couple of inches.

ERs almost cleaned up. Will be painted after the bottom is reinforced for the stabs. All thru hulls and sea cocks removed

[Pascal]

Port engine in place. Lot more room especially behind it as well as outside.

[Pascal]

More space at the rear
