After a bit more research I tend to agree with Dave's idea that this was based on a dayboat hull (I did not know that there were two versions until now!).
Having found a couple of pictures the dayboat on the web it appears to have an open floor made up of wooden slats; can anyone help me find out what is under the dayboat floor?
I am assuming that it is a series of ribs across the boat - if that is the case, how many are there, what is the spacing and what width / depth of timbers are use? This will help a lot in re-designing the timbers for the re-build. Any information or photos would be really useful,
Thanks
Pete
