The structural integrity of the hull is from the foam bonded to the hull and deck. Stringers are not necessary. More work and added weight.

Create a personal page (see FAQ's) or host photos on Flicker or Photobucket and post a link.

To learn more, I suggest you use the search feature (under MAIN drop down below masthead) and use keywords like "refoam" and "stringer".

There are hundreds of threads on this topic since many owners have done restorations.
