Reply To: HT 26 structure

hi, sorry to have missed your post.. I'm doing the same, rebuilding a 26. I have those beams and they seem to tie the hulls together and support the cockpit floor. So long as your replacements do both you should be ok…. good luck. I've had to tear out all the interior, resin coat all the hull (inside), replace/repair nearly every bulkhead, redo previous appalling hull repairs, epoxy the hull, replace the mast… shall I go on? best wishes bill
