I have hull #54 with the exact same cracks. I'll be taking the shower pan up next year and beefing things up.

Just had a boat yard look at the cracks. Certainly strucktual was the responce but they do not plan on gaining access on the inside. They will do everything on the outside. I'll post the layup when the work is done.
