[QUOTE="dgram36, post: 310763, member: 11252"] While I agree that your option sounds like the most permanent and complete fix of the issue, it will be cost prohibitive for me. The welder who quoted me was planning on TIG welding in a new piece of aluminum starting six inches above the bottom of the transom. The metal on the bottom is not corroded or pitted at all. Basically the damage is only where the wood touched the metal, so the top half of the transom itself. In your opinion would this be a sufficient fix in terms of safety and support of the motor given my financial restrictions? [/QUOTE]
