Re: 1973 V-20 transom project w/photos
Fly, what are your plans, enclosed w/bracket or 25" notched?

Re: 1973 V-20 transom project w/photos
msbhammer The photos are the flipped v-20 the insurance company gave me $9500.00 and my boat back... gotta love that. as the story goes she flipped and I got her upright and on land in about 45 minutes. So, since the motor was toast-I figured I would repower and close the transom in. I bought a new 2005 Johnson 140 four stroke for a little over 9 g's installed with guages and prop!
TinMan that's gonna be a 25" with a D&D marine R-4 with the swim platform (better stability I think) trim tabs of course! reelapeelin Just being part of this forum you guys have helped with this whole thing...thanks guys! More pics Sunday for shure!

Re: 1973 V-20 transom project w/photos
Looks Great!! Iwish I had taken more pic's of mine as I was doing it.
But when I get going I forget about that stuff. I converted from I/O to OB with a Stainless marine bracket with full swim platform. Best thing I have ever done! But my transom was fine. All I had to do is fill the hole were the I/ went. good luck!

Re: 1973 V-20 transom project w/photos
Nice! the D&D bracket is a good price under a 1100.00 painted and drilled-it's all custom even the transom curve is matched perfectly.

Re: 1973 V-20 transom project w/photos
Fly, I was wondering, at this stage with most of your transom removed why couldn't you just build the transom back flat (with no curve)? Saving and then having to fair in the inner tansom skin is more trouble than it is worth and you did say something about replacing the floor. This does made things easier I would think.

Re: 1973 V-20 transom project w/photos
I think i am going to leave the aft decking in place it was redone last year - I found a professional who is willing to do the finish work and wet sanding on the transom so the curve will be his problem, also we are going to build some additional strength into the areas where the R-4 bracket will mount (possilly some knees in the bilge area before we close it up -- good old barter system. He is also going to use a composite fider board in the transom. I will be doing the forward decks over, but only down to the bottom skin as I think the forward stringers are good.

And fly what type of composite board are they using for the transom, is it the same kind of stuff Skools was talking about boat makers using in the stringers
