My Transom Rebuild

[CaptJ]

So upto now my buddy George was with me, but due to the surgery he couldn't help much and I found Rob to help.

We started by tabbing in the weak areas. For strength and to hopefully keep water out

We put the first three sections in and screwed them through the thin inner layer of fiberglass to boards on inside to pull them in really tight and to spread the putty/fill resin really well. We also used the boards that you see to tighten things up.

We also tabbed in the both sides of the engine compartment that was surprisingly not tied in at all from the factory. This should add some strength.

the last photo needs to be rotated counter-clockwise 90 degrees . that is an inside shot of what we tabbed in. Hard to understand, sorry. I did cut out the port side bait well to get better access. Plan on building to fiberglass removable buckets, like the plastic one tht came with the boat. I will have more storage now underneath.
