It was both. The upper part was glass and the notch had nothing. I have all the wood out now and will be molding up the sides of the notch to get ready for the Arjay. Hammer I won't be cutting the skin but I am still kicking around the bracket idea and leaving the splashwell. Haven't seen to many with that setup (probably a reason for that) but it might be nice to have something different.

I did see a stainless marine bracket on ebay last night I was considering, but man the money adds up fast doing a project.

Default pics update transom

Ok I am just about finished and thought I would post an update. This is my first transom and fiberglass job so this isn't a closeup picture. Still needs a few coats of paint to finish. It's not perfect but it should get me fishin again. I am glad I took your guys advice and made it a 25.
