After seeing my V21 and on my advice I believe he also reinforced the inside of the transom where the engine mount is. There's about a 1 inch gap between the mount and the stringers. When I redid my floor and foam on my V21 I filled the gap with putty and then glassed it over, making the whole thing one solid unit. He asked me about it and how I did it and I think that when he had the transom fused he also reinforced the inside like mine. You have a beautiful boat. Aside from our differences in politics,, credit where it's due, he took good care of that boat. I'm surprised he sold it.
