The center section between those knees is what was flexing badly with the motor on. It was literally the top of the transom flexing outward. I was amazed that we made it back to the dock, let alone back to NOLA from Gulfport with the motor. I was worried that I might have dropped it into traffic.

It will be interesting to see what is found in the transom. Very odd for the transom to break in such a small span.
Why does Wellcraft cut all the rigging holes in the gas tank cover like that? The rotted 18 Fisherman i have had the gas hatch cut the same way and its rotted out.

I got my grind on today. I caught a break in the rain after supper and I was able to grind away the fiberglass holding the back of the cap onto the hull. I forgot how good a grinding disc works on fiberglass. I say probably 2 hrs of work.
    The tyveck suit and gloves and respirator made the job bearable.

Hey guys, I didn't get any work done today but I was trying to figure out how I was going to make a structure to be able to life the top cap out of the bottom hull. I was thinking about taking 2x6x10's and making, basically, swing set with out the swings.
Something like this:  except using 2x6's
