I would do as D suggest, drill some holes along the bottom of the transom and see what drips out. I know some guys who set up a small vacuum pump and let it pump each hole for a couple of days to dry it out. Once you get it as dry as u can, i d wet out the holes with gorilla glue, then fill them with wooden dowels coated with the same glue. After everything cures, sand out and finish with small dab of Marine Tex.

This is the main reason i ve never put tabs on , scared to death to drill 10 or 12 holes in the bottom of my transom.

The right way would be the skunk method, but this might buy you a little time.

Be sure and take lots of pics and post em
