Stringer placement

[Clamp-On]

I've read many thread's over on S&F about people installing there stringer's on top of the pad core but some put the stringer's in first and the core inbetween. Which way is right what do you guy's think ? How did hydrostream do it ?

I did mine like they were originally. Stringers to the hull, core around them.

I agree with ccrick, The V-King/Viking/Vulture have the stringers attached directly to the floor. I don't have any experience with the other boats but have heard that other models are the other way. When the core comes out it becomes real clear which way it is done. I will be returning mine to the same as it was originally. (Top Picture) Nice illustration. Bill

My stringers were and are over the core on my viper.

Thanks for the input guy's . I was just curious it seem's there is alot of confusion in this area on other hydrostream
rebuild thread's .

I think all the vipers were done that way. For what rhyme or reason? I have no clue. I'm sure there is a logical reason though. Theres alot of differences like the core goes all the way to the chines. Maybe someone who knows could chime in with an answer!

My 76 vector had stringers to the hull and cored around.

My vulture and every other vulture I have heard of has the stringers on the hull and core around it. Thats how mine is and thats how its getting redone.

I think if you had stringer's on top of the core and the core ever came loose the stringer's are gonna come loose too and that might get ya a bad case of the wet a$$
