Update, dry fiting first layer of the transom waiting for epoxy to come in.
still have to do a bit more grinding to do.
Has a HF bisket joiner that I took the guard off of and that did a great job of getting the wood out.

I saw a good description by someone on a forum, might have been thehulltruth forum, where they wrote up a lengthy description on how to make the transom repair. I can no longer find it! Does anyone recall where that might be?

Update, 2 layers of 3/4 inch epoxyed in, will glass in today. Man that 2nd layer of 3/4 was a bear, I ended up having to use a fork lift with some weight on it and lowerd the forks on top of the wood to help push it down. also got the floor glassed in, used 40oz woven looks like what wellcraft used, it took 3 gal of resin to wet it out.

looks great. i can't tell from the photo, but if those thru-hulls are plastic, change them to stainless while you can get to them. they are a pia later.
