Seeing the finished pictures I think you have enough protection from the motor and transom that you may not need a molding.Hard to tell by a picture but was the repair completed with jelcoat or paint?

Cool

Greenie, that is an awesome job. I like the way it looks without any trim on it, but protecting the top from things falling on it seems a prudent idea. I'm thinking if I ever do mine that way a layer of white truck bed liner just on the top will look boss and will protect all my hard work. In all cases, that's a really good job. Well done sir, well done.

Agree about the white truck bed liner.

That your shop/garage?

Thanks D - followed your lead on the transom inner reinforcement.

The way Wellcraft built it, top of transom well is part of upper cap, and lower part of hull.
Now, these sections are joined, seam under the trim eliminated, glassed in so it's all
more rigid too.

Too bad hp rated for only 200 or we could rig even more power on these transoms ! :)
