Yea i never understood the aluminum cap to finish out transoms. A many rotted out due to not having proper sealant from factory. I glassed mine completely and add 7 or 8 layups of csm on top of that to build up thickness

The only thing I figure is it was quick and easy when putting together a mass produced boat with the cap and splash well being separate from the hull.

Thumbs up

That ole girl really is sweet Kracker. I love the simple no frills set up.

Probably one of my top 5 favorite V20s.

I would caution you putting your filter/separator under the console. Hate to have it leak some fuel or fumes and get a spark. Might mount it on the inner transom between the engine bolts?
