good luck

I agree that cap will be the first to go.

Did you do your knee boards out of plywood or metal? I was thinking i would run the knee boards out of metal, through bolted at the stringer, then through bolted at the transom using the same bolts that hold the bracket on to the transom. I have a welding shop who is going to make me a custom bracket so we can put our bolts anywhere we want.
