I have a drain hole under my engine and used to have a bad leak through my prop strut mount. By all appearances it used to just weep through the vermiculite and any gap it can find. Definitely NOT the best system (my vermiculite is probably a real mess).
I have the single piece tub liner (floor connected to the settees etc.) I have considered cutting it out, but didn't know how best to put a new floor in (likely wood) with a professional looking transition to the settee sides. How is the transition done in your vessels with factory wood floors? Just with a seam of caulk?
Replicating the previous slopes of the floor might be a bugger when building new stringers. Would definitely be a satisfying project to complete though!
