We are using the book, runabout renovation right now, we have completed all the stringers and transom (we have them all cut and ready to go) we have checked them both for right fit in the boat but havent matted or glassed them in yet, that is our next step just waiting for our supplies to get here.

we used whatever plywood they recommended in the book, i cant remember i think it was just regular plywood 5/8, and in the book it said to put two coats of water sealer on it.

we decided that we are going to use the pourable foam and just do the two sides on the not the bilge down the center as this is the recommendation in the book also.

we are hoping this will be a decent inshore fishing boat as we will only be fishin hingham harbor, weymouth and quincy areas. then upgrade to something bigger next year (that needs alot less work)

oh yea we used pressure treated for all the stringers too
