I guess there are worse places to do a recore than the Cayman Islands! Looks like you got a great start on it.

Re: Hydrostream Vector Rebuild Transom & Floor
Also, GET THAT MOTOR OFF THERE!
Really though, I would really get that motor off of there without the deck on there before you start ripping to much of the structural stuff out of there. It should have come off long before the deck came off to be honest. Would hate to see you put it all back together and the weight of the motor flexed the hull while there was no core or stringers in it and it never go back together right and end up with something that will never drive right. These hulls will flex and move very easy and can get out of shape very easy without the deck on them.
Other then that, Its looking great. Keep the pictures coming though. You have any pictures of what it looked like before you started working on it?
