[QUOTE="amateurhour, post: 307907, member: 9425"] Got the transom out so the boat is 100% stripped! Also finally cleaned out all the dead leaves and junk and it's a solid boat, no holes or cracks, WOO! Here's the transom out, the aluminum behind it is in good shape. [img]https://www.pinkpineappleink.com/images/boat/during/033113notransom.jpg[/img] [img]https://www.pinkpineappleink.com/images/boat/during/033113cleantransom.jpg[/img] However I did realize that I suck at drilling out rivets. I got the caps off the rear of the boat perfectly, but getting the transom brace off was a comedy of errors. As you can see two of the rivets are still in there a fair bit. [img]https://www.pinkpineappleink.com/images/boat/during/033113badrivets.jpg[/img] I did get a lot of work done though, I got about a quarter of the interior done but I've still got a lot to go. At least it's clean now.
