Wood stringers in 1991 3227?
In reading previous topic posts, I remained confused. In 1991, was Carver still using wood stringers?

Welcome to the forum....here is a link to a previous discussion of the same thing and boat model just admittedly an earlier year....
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4920
Different years and different models used ever changing construction methods and materials over the years, not really clear what your guy means when he says "hollow stringers" and where on the boat is this observed. Maybe someone who owns a 3227 of the same year can chime in. Engine bed stringers can be different.

BTW, the Top Hat stringer system was used in models less than 42. Mine is a 38 and it's a TH system. Have seen it in 38 Santegos (same hull), etc. too.
