My 35 MK 1 read dry with the same flex issue and when we took off the top layer the core was soaked.

You may want to take a core sample using a hole saw to see make sure the core is intact. I don’t generally trust moisture meters. An added stringer seems to be a good idea to me. While you are at it you may want to look at the tabbing for you backstay chain plate to make sure it is not failing.

In the area between the bilge locker and propane locker. I borrowed a moisture meter from a surveyor friend, and it is dry. Also, no crazing or anything of that nature. I am wondering if I have some delamination on either side and will tap with a hammer to see if that is the case. Was also thinking that maybe by adding a glassed in stringer underneath the cockpit that it might help provide some strength. Anyone have a similar issue in the past? Thanks, and Happy 2023.
