About that Transom

When we started taking the transom off we knew that it had been stiffened or repaired because the extra layer was easily seen.

What was unknown was that the fiber glass placed over it did not adhere to the boat hull or the plywood.

The plywood was soaked thru and had started to rot in the lower corners.

Once we had that repair job removed we started to take out the next layer of the transom. The glass work was much better than the repair, but there was another amusing suprise under it. Some one had poured resin in with the wood. So much that there were parts that had not completely cured.

But by dinner time lots of applied force and team work we got the majority of the transom out.
