Any suggestions as to separating the deck from the hull? I have drill out the rivets and removed the rub rail. The two were separated at the transom but spear to be bonded around the rest of the surface. Just wondering what others have used for tools or techniques. It's a 87 and never been apart before.

If your tearing apart anything glass related you can't be without one of these.

Buy the cheap ones the fiberglass dust kills anything you use eventually so don't waste your money on the good stuff, burn them up and return them within the warranty period.

I assume the deck is glassed to the hull from the inside where the two meet, you will have to cut the glass with the multicrafter tool if you can access it, watch you don't cut through the deck.

Yup - handy tool for sure. You'll probably go through a pile of blades, so buy the bulk pack, if they are available.
