[Rhodes22-list] Searching the archives and settled step

[chcarreon at cox.net]

I have the same problem, the link sent by Gary is a good way to fix.  My stringers were water damaged and were failing.  I had completed half the repair before I saw the link.  Good advise.  I am now replacing the floor boards that can be removed easily so that I can inspected the hull for standing water.  I also found black mold which I have removed with vinegar and bleach.  I also used a Fogger to get areas that I could not reach.
