Well, thought I'd pull the interior out of the cruiser and see what lies beneath the surface, man what a mess you can't see the floor from all the oil and grease. This thing has been rigged more than once, you'd have to see it in person to believe how it was done, can't believe anybody would do this, and the wiring is a total disaster!. But the hull is in excellent shape and it's a stout one, only problem is the glass on the stringers is delaminated but no cracks anywhere and no water got between the glass and stringers so there is no rot!. So, I guess I'll just plug all the holes, re glass the stringers and it should be good to go, then I'll put everything back in the way it should be!...

Actually there's not that much to do it's all there, once I get the stringers re glassed just bolt it all back together, nothing fancy since there's a full interior and everything is hidden, main focus here is "reliability"!..

Actually the wiring is good up until the end then it turns to $hit, I'll probably use most of it just clean it up and route it the right way!...
