Title: Floor replacment
Post by: tunnels on July 17, 2016, 01:37:47 PM

Cutting out the floor in my taylor of california tunnel hull and hope to start putting the new floor in next week, the question I have is when I support the three points( front on the keel and the outer two rear points) do I need to support the center pod? Thank you in advance for any and all good advise. The taylor is similar to a SST. Tim

I used a six foot level and measured every point of the bottom, I am cutting the rest of the floor this weekend and then suspend it on jack stands to finish the work. I have to build up the tops of the tunnels before laying the floor back down. slow going living in Idaho and having to order everything in.
