I cleaned mine up by sanding off old covering Cleaning the letters as good as you can. Paint the whole thing white. Then sand off the white leaving it in the letters. Follow with clear and you wind up with this.
Could have used finer sandpaper and better clear paint, but behind the clear panel on the boat you can't tell.

Never did post a finished picture.
Epoxied stud/screws in the base to hold the mast base.
Hopefully this will keep the water from finding its way into it

Bill not sure what the stringers are made of. I have one picture of one.
I made a form in the shape of a 2x6 and laid-up fiberglass in it, then vacuum bagged it with
West System. The finished fiberglass 2x6's were then cut to replace only the lower part of the stringer.
These were fit inplace and the whole thing was covered with roving and mat.

"Twin disk" will work with some work on linkage and clerance for much lower price.
C36 site has members that made the switch. I am in the middle of changing over.

The front looks in much better shape than mine was, you should be ok drying out and replacing the aft piece.
I worked to remove all the wood in the sump of the bilge replacing it with aluminium or fiberglass.
You may want to check the other strings as I found them to be wet also.

Well I guess you have the Midas touch.
Very nice job
Looks like factory piece.
Wonder how carbon fiber tube would hold up.🤔

Been busy while waiting for rudder, ground keel down and faired. The keel had what I will guess is electrolysis corrosion. Put 3 layers of biaxial on the joint, faired, and barrier coated.
Filled the void by the new strut and barrier coated.
The rudder will go in come spring as the lifts are all tied up pulling boats for the winter.

Just did mine you could probably use 1 1/2 for the sides but top and front would hit, with 1 inch not much room there. Infact the front or back of stairs you should reuse the plastic washer where the crank shaft sticks out.
