SKOOL, dont follow what ya saying. Can you come up and show me. ;D PLEASE :-* :-* :-*

[Skools_Dual]

add to the transom the cap doesn't fit just cut it to fit on this side

[msbhammer]

Knew what you were saying, but I was just trying to get a extra set of free hands up here with me. ;D

Worked late into the night working on installing a 1/2 ply to the inner Transom. Will only be a partial piece, just to fill the void between the splashwell and transom.
Have to grind down my fresh coat of primer. >:(
Should have it glassed in on Friday, then start all over with getting teh cap back on. :-/

[C YENSEN]

i am still confused....did you not make the new transom thick enough ??? :-/ or too thick. :-/

[msbhammer]

I"ll find out today when I go and try to put the cap back on, after adding another ply. Gonna test fit before I glass in the additional sheet I installed last night under the spot light. :-/

Ok, I finally made the transom cp fit on. Adding the extra ply didnt work. Just pushed everything forward, causing more cutting. The reason the cap wouldnt go on right is that when I rebuilt the transom, so how it got racked at the outside corners. wich is strange because the is the strongest point...at the corners. I was 3/8 out on both corners. Causing me to try and twist the cap on. So it was either scribe in the transom or knotch the cap. So I knotched the cap, cutting off a bit of the rear where it comes over the side. Will need to do a little more glass work, but the cap now fits on. ;D
