Yes...Racoons decided to make a home out of my SUPRA. Needless to say all Vinyl but the captains chair is torn to shreds...engine wiring etc. I am going to take this oppourtunity while the vinyl is being redone to replace the floors and stringers if need be...etc. Any related threads to rebuilds etc. would be very helpful. I will attach pictures of the damage the little bastards did as well. Thanks guys!

Wow!!! I would let that be the sign that raccoon season is open. Not that it will put your interior back together! That is really bad news. I hope it turns out positive anyway. Put up some before and after pics for us.

Yup really sucks...I had no idea they were even there until I untarped and found feces and foam all over the place...I chased them out babies and all! I will for sure keep you guys posted with before and afters.

You'd hate to blow a hole through the Kevlar hull with a 12 gauge, good thing you chased them out....and they left...... I always pour peppermint oil on a piece of blue foam insulation and leave under the cover when storing the boat for the winter.......
Good luck with the rebuild...keep us posted.....

Moth balls will do the trick also. Just lay them on the ground around it. Will keep mice, raccoons pretty much anything away. I recommend some inside also.
