Does anybody have any pictures of a competition hull. I'm interested in the stringer/floor layout in particular. I'm restoring a Viper hull and looking for ideas to beef-up the stringers. I've seen alot of posts refering to comp hulls and would like to see pics of the interior, if anybody has any.
Thanks
Joe
Wondering how to post images or maybe change your avatar or maybe something else?

Re: Competition hull
Thanks Mercman, those are the kind of pics I am looking for. After you put in your stringers and seat box, did you gelcoat the inside of the hull? What material did you make the stringers out of? I'm leaning toward using sitka spruce for it's light weight, straight grain and strength. Your boat looks awesome!

Re: Competition hull
His vking was originally built that way from the factory if I remember right. I could be wrong here. So many boat builds I have watched on here. lol
