I have just purchased a seafarer Vermont 5.1m hull I am looking for any information I can get with regards to a full rebuild . The floor has already been removed so I am starting from scratch. Has any one done one. The transome is ok so I dont have to replace that. I have not seen the original layout so any photos would be great. I have some Fibreglass experience but need help with floor supports/underfloor support/underfloor floation/floor thickness/ materials used/ we have on standby a team of highly skilled idiots

Thanks Terry

Have a look for a thread called "White Ants in the Play Pen" Long read but worth it (was hard enough keeping up when it was being done)

Awesome rebuild.

Or PM Colac Girl.

Good Luck,

Awww... thanks Fez :)

Hi Terry,
Our rebuild is a Seafarer Ventura 17 (5.18mt)
The thread is two years old now and photos on the first 4 pages were lost during a server change, but links are still there that take you to the photo host site. First 8 pages are ripping apart and preparation, then the real fun began.
You will find the thread here -

Good luck with your rebuild, and I hope your team of highly skilled idiots stay with you to the end.

Hi Terry, Please find a link to the Share Project website for a Sea Farer Viking. It is in 4 parts and has good explanations and pictures.
