New build attempt dumb question

Captain Hook created the topic: New build attempt dumb question

I have an empty fiberglass 48" hull and top half, part of a deal when I purchased a running boat. It is similar to an Enforcer hull.
I plan to build it up for a decent Zenoah or what ever. All my previous boats have been RTR with TLC.
My sample boat (crashed) has 3/8" wood stringers for the motor mounts, transom, radio box, etc..
Are these available or something I need to make? (I can handle that)
I've tried to research boat builds but can't find this kind of information (or I missed it)

If you know the original builder of the hull you could ask them for either the template or the stringers to install, but generally you will have to make them yourself if they weren't supplied with the hull. They aren't hard to do.

If you go to the firststate composites website he has a detailed build guide you could follow to build the hull. Alternatively you can go to this link where I have built a jetboat from two halves.
