As you know the transom is divided into three section port, center and starboard. it is made of two sheets of 3/4 inch ply wood , totaling six sections all together.
In order to get the wood to fit super tight and right we made a template of the inside of the transom. We started by drawing it on plastic, cutting it out, then tranferred it to 1/4 plywood because it was easier to work with. Once we got all three pieces to fit in tightly across we knew we had the right dimensions. We then traced the 1/4 inch onto the marine grade 3/4 inch.
Here are two pics of the first laye of ply wood fitted in. It is a much tighter and better fit then what the boat originally had.
