Removed the inner skin of the transom. I cut the fiberglass with a grinder and used chisels and long wood shims to separate the inner skin from the wood.

good idea to go ahead with the deck & stringer(if needed). I'm sure you thought about cap-off but you get it done faster this way.
Are you reusing/recoring the deck or are you going to plywood down and glass over? Use 1/2 in Exterior AB grade douglas fir aka marine grade plywood. DONT use pressure treated plywood. Plastic fuel tank? Definitely get a forward bilge pump in there. Think of everything while you have it opened up!

I added the inner skin of the transom cutout yesterday. The plan today or tomorrow is to pour the second of 3 five gallon buckets of Seacast. FYI the spacers are not set and are not going in those locations.

The second pour was delayed until last night. The before pic has most spacers visible. The other two photos were post pour.

While you have it opened up, don't forget to re-do your deck drains/hoses/scuppers.
I had a hard time finding original sizes. Ended up changing to new & bigger stainless scuppers
