yup, to get to the stringers i'm going at it from the inside. conferred w/ the local fiberglass boat guy and he's gonna keep me from goofing up toooooo badly. will cut off the aft cap to fwd of the splash well, and maybe 3' of the deck to get to the stringers. i'll get photos as i go and see if i'm smart enough to attach them. it seems some others had probs w/ that. thanks for the input. mike

the back deck and forward face of transom came out just fine. entire transom plywood was oatmeal, very little deterioration in the stringers, thank allah. less than a foot it looks like. now i'll try to add pics.

I'm new so i've not read all the threads here yet, but thats a damn slick way to fix a transom with a top cap like that.

got her all cleaned up, stringers cut back to good wood, (will rebuild and sister). looks like the aftmost layer (at least) were 3 separate pieces. i guess for a good flat for the motor. also they were all at an angle from vert or hor. any idea why that is?
