Possible Dry Rot

Just finished repairs on a 92 Mallard and replaced the entire back of the floor with new braces and put in a new subfloor. Took me a week and used hurricane braces and treated lumber. Then went on the roof and found several problem areas of caulking that was cracked, fixed those and she's good as new. If you have time i would gut that wall but be prepared to replace several feet of bracing beyond what is soft. I recommend getting a product called Moldex (Menards). Also recommend treating the area around the rot with a good wood hardner to solidify the wood you haven't replaced.
