Putting the transom in
Nipper & KEEPINGITREEL: Imagine the shock I got when I took the cap off & saw that mess. The last owner put the boat in a slip for 2 years (yes in the water) and the transom holes leaked into the core. When I was cleaning out the rotted wood I noticed it had started from the top to the bottom. The only advantage is that it was fairly easy to clean with a air chisel & grinder. Attached pics of the transom install. The first pic is a template I made to cut the 3 panels. Tnks for the good luck, need it.
