thanks RW. This winter I'm going to copy that back seat of yours. I'll let you see it next summer.

I used 3 layers of 1/2" plywood. Then I used woven roving. The last layer being woven roving with a heavy matting on the other side. I faired it out with 3M premium marine filler. It came out real strong. I'm confident that it could hold two of the motors that are on it. I plan on doing the same with the floor this winter. I'm going to try and shoot the Awlgrip non skid on it when its done. The floor now is too slippery when its wet.

Its my shop that I work at. I'm just lucky enough to be able to use it for my own projects after hours.

Default Transom

That does look nice. Unfortunately, I need to do the same to my boat but don't have the skills, time, or tools to do so myself. 2 questions for you...
Would you be interested in redoing the transom on my boat (I live in MD and could bring it up)??
If not, how much do you estimate the average shop would charge to do so?
Thanks for your help.

Price would depend on the fiberglass shop that you go to. It could cost several thousand dollars. Usually around $2000 though. I could redo your transom. Give me a call at 732-803-1313 and we can set something up.
