Is this a wood framed plastic boat?

No Sir, it's riveted aluminum with a wooden floor. The wood rotted and
I'm looking at replacing it with beams left over from a building project
of Dad's. He's the carpenter, not I -- never have been good with wood
myself.

It's a deep V and looks to be a good hull on which to build.

Just do not use pressure treated wood. Copper and aluminum so not play
well together.


There is never a good reason to use PT wood in a boat


I know some boats use PT to prevent rot, and the wood is covered.
