New V-20 project

[Curapa]

I cut the top cap today exposing the inside of the transom. It is in bad shape. The plywood core in the transom and stringers is pretty much non-existent. After examining the transom it is obvious why it failed, the transom is only one layer of 3/4 in its entirety except for the center section where it is doubled. This boat started off as a SeaDrive and was swapped out with an older non-floatation Armstrong bracket. It was doomed from the begining.
