If I'm seeing right that's the floor register, after they install the floor they glass over it then the put the funnel core, so that's the glass that was over the floor. Yes as you grind it it will fad away to the original hull

Why it there a gap underneath that lower layer? Or will that gap go away as I grind back towards where the float box used to be?

They say a picture is worth a thousand words.....
This is how your hull is made except instead of 1/4" foam, you have 1/2" balsa.

After you remove the top fiberglass skin, scrape out the balsa and rough up the surface that's left and put it back together. Sounds so simple. :up:

So under the core there is resin between the core and the hull?

The core is over the floor about 2 inches ,I think that's what I'm looking at , I would remove all of it and get down to the original hull
