need help on transom repair

[mauryc]

I have a six page thread on this site detailing my transom repair. I used the pour method with the Arjay 6011 product. There are many considerations here; Is the boat worth it to you to have someone do it for you for $2500 to $4000? Do you care if your boat has repair marks on the inner hull where you have to cut it to take it out? Do you have the time to do it yourself? Can you afford the mess at your house to do it yourself?

No matter which way you go, traditional wood layup, resin with wood substitute (coosa board or the like), or a complete pourable transom, either of these can be accomplished with minimal tools and a little patience. You will save tons of labor $$'s by doing it yourself. Materials should run you $400-$600. As usual, I'll offer any feedback I can on the pourable method. It's not for every application, but it worked well for me.
