Re: lead or steel scrap for float test
That was my plan of attack, the sawzall has become my best friend on this project! I plan on using the methods talked about above but will most likely be cutting the glass with a smaller sawzall we have so its easier to handle.

Re: lead or steel scrap for float test
Thank you for the advice, it will be another week or two before I'm able to work on the boat again since I work at a christmas tree farm around this time of year. not sure if I'm going to take the rub rail off before we flip it or after it is flipped back over.

Re: lead or steel scrap for float test
Ok, thank for the advice, I was able to remove the wood screws by using a ratchet with a flat head screw driver head in a socket. I thought about removing the glass tabbing that covers the bolts on the inside, I guess it needs to be done anyway to remove the cap? My only other idea was to take a sma...

Re: lead or steel scrap for float test
hi, I am currently redoing a 63' 25 bertram and am wondering if you have any tricks for removing the cap. I know there are wood screws every third screw but there are bolts in between. I removed the wood screws but still need to remove the bolts. I know the cap is also riveted to the hull under the ...

Re: Bertram 25/31 bow chock
yes, I'm very familiar with it, we plan on doing a similar motor setup to widgeon, we are contemplating a prop pocket at the moment. So far I have torn off the cabin, the deck and bunk area, and recently I pulled the engines and fuel tanks as well as most of the hardware. I work on the boat on the w...

Bertram 25/31 bow chock
Hi, I'm new to the bertram 31 forum, the bertram 25 forum is down so I'll be posting my build here as long as everyone else is ok with that. The reason for the new thread is that I have the original chock/running lights from my b25 but it is missing the two caps that pop in to the top. I am wonderin...
