Does anyone know what the inside of a Sprint 15 hull looks like?

Apart from being curious about what I cannot see, I am keen to know if there are there stringers/ribs/bulkheads in the hull (or for that matter deck) section and if there are, can water run freely from the bow to the stern.

Hi Robin
1953 has never had water in, it's always been a very dry boat.

This is not related to 1953, just curiosity about what is down that hole (rear hatch).

Hi Robin,
It is all one compartment from front to back. It has foam blocks fixed in for buoyancy and support of the sides but water can run from the front to the back.
The cocktail cabinet bit is another compartment near the top. You can see how big this bit is when you look in.
Cheers

PS Now if you had come to the Nationals you could have taken the tour round the factory and seen how it is made

Thanks for that Bob. I will be at Pentewan so if anyone wants to whip their deck off....
