To Seacast or not?

I just wanted to say thanks for all the input to everyone. After doing some more research and reading some of the other forums you guys (and gals....just incase :) ) suggested, I think I'm starting to lean toward Coosa board for the transom. It's recieved great reviews from the claasic mako guys as well as some of the other forums I've read and I just found out bro-inlaw can get it for me a little on the cheap side. The seacast still seems to be in question although nobody has mentioned any failures or anything less than a strong transom when used, it seems that lots of people are a little conerned about how it will hold up in the long term. Also, it seems that most people are saying the seacast is actually heavier that wood (which I'm still not sure about) but some claim a substantial weight difference when doing larger projects such as a transom core replacement (between 100 and 200 lbs, if I remember correctly). Thanks Knight for the offer, plans are still fluid at the moment and if I change my mind about the seacast I'll drop you a line.

I know this thread has been quite for a while. Things got a little busy and my time was limited, but I hope to have a plan and start work on the "Big V" soon. Unfortunatly I have to finish getting my garage set up (so I can find tools and materials :-[ then finish redoing the fence so I can get the boat in the back yard before the city comes out to "formally" inform me that boats aren't allowed to be stored in the driveway (go figure, we live on the coast, but have to hide our boarts...... >:( ) Right now I have my boat stashed at my parents' house! It's nice living close to family!!!! ;D
