Got the transom put in this evening. We wet the old inside fiberglass skin down with resin and then applied 3 sheets of 1 1/2oz mat that we precut to fit the transom. Applied resin and wet down each layer thoroughly. then rolled the back side of the transom wood with resin, placed in the slot, Ran some screws through the motor mount holes from the back outside to pull the new transom up until we could get clamps on and then applied clamps until resin was squishing out all around the edge. That is critical.









Taped up all the little holes that the previous idiot owner drilled through the hull and the are now full of resin and a bunch or glass between them and the wood. will trim everything up tomorrow, fill in the side pockets with foam filler and then replace the caps and glass them back in so they are sealed off. the side of the transom that is facing the inside of the boat will be glassed in with woven mat for strength and will be tied into the bottom hull with woven mat. Clamps will come off in the morning as the resin has already kicked. Little closer all the time.CF
