I couldn't find it in search but who poured their transom and stringers with arjay?
 

I am thinking about going this route because it seems really less time consuming and I was curious as to how much I was going to need.

Seems like NYMACK used 8 gallons. He had to improvise during the pour because the stuff will find every little pinhole and run out everywhere.

I figured that stuff would be pretty thin before it set up. I'll try to find his post. That's not bad for the stringers. It would be cheaper than ply.

It was 15 gallons, 3 pails, Ridge is correct I did make quite a mess in my driveway, You have to seal every pin hole if not it will find it.
I will recommend for stringers I personally have not done it. I did only my transom back in 08..

thats not bad at all, I can get arjay for around 125 per 5 gal. so for around 450 I would have a lifetime transom. I would think the stringers would be maybe another 20-25 gallons.

I was in the process to modify the Transom down to a 20" because of my engine, Here is what I found she was clearly water logged..

I remove the outside skin to simplify the process, some pros will question this, I did it because I KNOW it will have it back on stronger than before :)
Its important to observe where I cut, it was done this way to have the best area to work with when putting it back together etc..

Nice and clean, notice the skin is paper thin? not to mentioned the holes..

Skin back on, not sure if you notice the mat and resin job on the inside, however I can assured the skin was thicker and stronger that how it was on previously

Ready to pour, the holes I miss was around the new drain tube at the bottom, on the inside, most of the stuff ended up in the Boat!
I used 2x4 wood to cap the open top and secure it with very strong aluminium tape, risky but it worked, my pour was done using a safety cone and poured in from the rub rail area, this stuff flows like water, unlike Seacast, which in my opinion is a great option for the stringers because of the fibre strands which will be better for impact and flexing?

Hope this helps and post pictures please, we all seems to like this stuff :happy:

thanks for the post, I get to do my stringers too, so it should be fun, lol

What happens is you run out and need to pour more but the arjay sets up?

From experience I can recommended you wipe the cured surface with Acetone and re-pour, its a chemical bond which requires a clean surface..Just my 2 cents, some of the spilled Arjay, yes and I will use the word welded to my driveway cement to this day four years later!!

What a NICE JOB!!...beautiful work and outcome...REELY like those SS through-hulls for the bilge pumps...clasSAY!!...:drool:

nice job !
