Now from an engineering perspective one can argue this flex is critical however I will argue the fiberglass flexes enough.
Just my two cents

that is the plan, the turnbuckles were temporary. the wood in the transom is not rotted so what i am going to do is glass a piece of 3/4 ply to the inside of the transom and then run a 2x4 glassed in across the top inside and then i will put two transom knees out of 3/4 ply from the transom to the stringers. that should solve my problems, what do you think?
