23' cc FATCAT rehab......
Alright, so the process has started. Originally was just going to clean up and repaint. The guy doing the work forgot to tell me his building was repo'd by the landlord due to non-payment (and my boat was inside, completely apart on a trailer with flat tires). So here I am with a completely disassembled boat and a lot of work. Looking through all the threads has made me want to continue the project myself so here it is......Fortunately, the work that has been done seems to have been done well. The exterior has been sanded and primed several times and may be only a few steps away from final coating. Unfortunately, none of the thru-hull penetrations were filled in this process so that is the first step. I have also decided to convert it to an outboard so I will need to glass-in the keyhole through the stern. Hopefully the weather will start to cooperate and I will post more pics as work progresses. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I would coal tar the tank instead of powder coating.
Coal tar has some flexibility and if you get a crack in the powder coat it will make the corrosion of the tank that much worse. I personally used Dave Pascoe's method to install all my tanks. http://www.marinesurvey.com/yacht/fueltank.htm

the problem is this.......I have removed the rear cap and noticed some delamination in the upper half of the transom and the inner glass work as well as the two layers of wood. if I remove the transom, is it going to be difficult based on the previous work done? suggestions?
