So exciting that you are nearly ready to start rebuilding

In the mid 90s I helped a friend completely gut and rebuild an 80s era 40 foot grand prix racing sloop. It had a 3x 6 cockpit well for the crew's feet, a flush deck and stick steering. We chain sawed out the cockpit and the transom and opened a hole about 8 by 12, completely stripped out the interior as you did. We went right down to an aluminum frame in the sole that held the keel, the mast and the stays. The fiber glassed the hell out of the aluminum frame. Then we fabbed our own 4×8 carbon fiber foam core panels and used them to do the bulk heads and fab architectural parts. To make the carbon fiber panels we built an absolutely level strooong table and made a vacuum bag. We laid down sheets of carbon fiber, applied resin between sheets, laid in the foam core, more carbon fiber, then put the vacuum bag on top and sucked the air out. It was an amazing process. We must have built 100 panels. I became quite skilled at making parts by slitting panel sections to bend them into shapes and fiberglass them together. Some sailing magazine covered the project, not sure which one. Sadly, I never got to sail the final product.

It's likely too late for this comment, but consider making the forward bulkhead and compartment water-tight. While it's not the most vulnerable part of the boat, it is the part most likely to run into a mostly submerged shipping container at night. I did hear you mention you're going to make the aft bulkhead water-tight. One more consideration along these lines: Place fire-safe, closed-cell foam in the non-used spaces. In case they ever do fill up with water, the closed-cell foam will displace most of the water, greatly increasing buoyance of the compartment.

"It's only going to flood a hundred liters or so into this part of the boat because our water line is here..." It's there with no flooding. If you start flooding, your boat will sink much lower and your waterline will rise much higher.

Good thing you two are artsy architects! You can draw a wiggly line between two other lines without coloring outside the lines! No way I could pull that off!

"My heart is beating fast." So, leave! It'll slow down considerably!

Why didn’t you just buy a new boat? You could already be back in the water and sailing.

You could have told us it was you in the protective suites doing the work and we would never have known

I wonder if buying a new boat wouldn't it be cheaper?

Yay! So glad that y’all are getting back to the boat refurbish!

What's the cost difference between renovating vs buying a new one? I know its not all about cost, but just curious.

Not sure if it’s too late, but if you can acetone the sharpie marker off and use pencil. The sharpie will bleed through 8,000 coats of gel coat or paint… Been there before.
