Got the bulk of the transom plywood out. Whats left is skin in places. Tried to upload pic but all I get is invalid post specified. Not sure if its my phone. Kracker I was able to lift one corner of the transom off the trailer, which really surprised me. And i still have foam and stringers in it.

Why will you need only one layer of ply on your transom? Are you still extending your sringers into the bracket? I would hold off on doing anything with that transom door until you are in the final stages of your restoration. Really if your going to cut your splash well out then enclose all your transom except for a 20" width and have the bottom of the passage 25" above your keel and don't worry with a door.

Yes Tartuffe I am building what I call an outrigger bracket. I am buiding my normal stringer setup, but in the back, there will be sister stringers that extend out the back 30" and marry up to the main stringers for 66". The stringers extending out the transom will be the sides of my bracket. So I add a bottom, top, and figure out a mounting pad across the back. Then I have a flotation bracket. I am still glassing it off to the transom to spread weight. However wide the main stringers are will be my bracket width. Should provide enough flotation for my plan of twins in the future. But what I am truly gaining is 2' of back deck that was taken by the splashwell. That is what really has me excited.

MJ I have been posting some pics from my phone. I have not figured out how to photobucket on my phone. I can upload pics to photobucket but thats all I can do on my phone. So I just use the manage attachments bar which worked fine till yesterday. It does not work on the local fishing forum either?? So i think its a phone problem. Trying to figure out photobucket mobile.
Internet is off at the house so mobile is all I have now.
