Re: Transom replacement
WOW, another hardcore transom guy here. ;D
Its a mess, but dont give up. Will look better once you get her cleaned up.
Question: in your first picture, look like you can slightly see the cap...???is the cap still on ?????
Word of advise, some may disagree. A top knotch fiberglass guy watched me as I redid my transom. Everything went well, but when I went to put the cap on, somehow the transom got twisted out of shape by 3/8" to a half inch. I personnally think I should have put in three seperate peices of wood instead of one piece of wood covering the whole transom. The fiberglass guy told me, the strenght isnt in the wood, but in the fiberglass...and fiberglass is stronger then steel.
So, maybe if I would have pieced in the transom, it wouldnt have become slightly twisted. Actually, thats how wellcraft did my transom. Using three pieces of wood and not just one.
Either way post alot of step pictures or the rebuild. ;)
