Bob was selling some parts of a F32 so you may get lucky .
BTW fixing it is not that hard I had to do it on my F30 . I fliped it over cut the lower glass and removed the core . I replaced it with plywood and reglassed the lower part back on .

even if you find used ones they'll most likely will need work.....repairing yours seems to be a dollar wise move..

Re: F32 back deck
Fixing is easy.. do it from underneath, you can use plywood or balsa core.Eddie-o wrote:Am looking for someone who is parting out a f32. need the removable fiberglass section of the back deck . mine is soft and would like to try and replace it rather then try to fix it. I Will also check with Bob

Or use Divincyl and never worry about doing it again. Its a bit more expensive than plywood, but doesn't rot!
I've used it with good result s in several areas - you can even glass over the top, sand and paint for a smooth, gel-coat-like finish.

Re: back deck
Nothing more on that part but the pulpit was done the same way with Plywood and weights to ensure a good bond before replacing the bottom glass layer, this method allowed for the gel & non skid finish of the top surface to be left untouched...Eddie-o wrote:Ready 123 Thanks for the picture if you have more i would like to see them

The fore and side decks were done with balsa core....
