That 23 footer with the solid glass transom was a Formula. The only core in the Formula was in the flat raised area where the sterndrives were previously. We built the motor well for a single 25" outboard and the sides of the well to connect the transom to the main stringers. Probably on 1/3 the area of the transom was involved. I agree that the full transom on a V20 or 248 would really be heavy in solid glass.
