Deck Re-coring on an Oldie

Folks, a buddy is considering a late-sixties Triton with a really soft fore deck and side decks. He's trying to get a rough idea of cost/ time to have some yard do it, and I'll appreciate any information or experience you might be able to share. Its the plywood core that's bad, and I know that the pro's like to get at the problem from above, rather than fm below. (I guess they're comfortable with the re- finishing task, while us amateurs are scared off by the prospect.)

Related to this, am I right in recalling that someone makes/sells some stuff for this job by the square foot? Any info? Thanks, all.

He find that himself or a pro examined it? I'd be worried that's just the tip of the iceburg.

While looking for a good link to set you up with a supplier for Nidacore, I came across this website that should be very useful for you.

Local did a rebuild on a old Ranger 421 with that stuff- worked like a freakin' charm.

You might want to ask this question on rec.boats.building - many experts there on this sort of question.

The main issue that I see is that boatyard work of this sort is likely to cost more than the boat is worth, possibly a lot more. At $85 an hour it doesn't take long for a project to hit the 5 figure mark and the boat is worth considerably less.
