Cape Dory 10 construction help

[Ed Kelliher]

I have CD 10 #1876, which was probably built in the late 1970's. It has been leaking water through the centerboard trunk into the void between the outer hull and the narrow (2" to 10" wide), interior deck that runs down the boat's centerline. This narrow deck has gotten soft and needs to be replaced. Does anyone know how much wood is in this void area? Specifically:
* Is this narrow interior deck glass covered plywood or solid glass.
* Is there a wood keel plank running down the centerline of the outer hull in this void area?

Thanks.
