I will definitely not recommend removing the skin as the first and only option, However but if you have a partial rotten transom like this and mine, removing the skin is the only way to go.
It is VERY IMPORTANT that all traces of wood be completely removed since the new transom needs to glue it self to the bottom of the Boat
This part of the Transom to me this is the foundation and the strongest part of the Transom.
Please be sure to use Acetone as the final clean up agent since it removes all traces of contamination and old mold from the surface then brush fresh resin on the inside area let it dry or to a tack then pour !
Use thin roller brush for acetone and resin.
