I’ll measure before I order the core. I have some wet spots in the area of port genoa track(aft section). Interestingly the other side is dry. I thought I would order the core ahead of time. But after haul out, I’ll wait to dig stuff out before ordering. I’m not very motivated to do this, but it needs to be done.
Did anyone use expandable polyurethane foam for coring? Merton’s Fiberglass sells it.

When I installed the windlass I found the centerline, where a staysail track was, has plywood reinforcement about 3" wide.

When replacing failed balsa I have been purchasing 1/2" then sanding it down a little to leave room for epoxy and filler and the new epoxy/glass laminations. If you remove a fastener in the general area of the deck you would be able to verify that C&C did not use different thicknesses in newer designs/builds.
