Yea i never understood the aluminum cap to finish out transoms. A many rotted out due to not having proper sealant from factory. I glassed mine completely and add 7 or 8 layups of csm on top of that to build up thickness

.The only thing I figure is it was quick and easy when putting together a mass produced boat with the cap and splash well being separate from the hull.

The ole girl fits nicely on her new trailer.

Yes she does... and she looks boss.

Can't wait to see her with the new engine.

That ole girl really is sweet Kracker. I love the simple no frills set up.

Probably one of my top 5 favorite V20s.

Heres a shot of the transom bumped up to 25" ready for fairing and paint. So ready for this motor!!!!!

I would caution you putting your filter/separator under the console. Hate to have it leak some fuel or fumes and get a spark. Might mount it on the inner transom between the engine bolts?
