[QUOTE="BoatDawg4120, post: 363998, member: 9832"] Made some progress on the boat today. Was able to get the outboard off and start on the transom rebuild. Got the core and inner aluminum skin out. The inner skin was really pitted. I have one of the bench panels from my old Jon boat that I'm gonna use to strengthen that up. Core came out in about 8 pieces with the bottom 4" completely missing. I started to fab the patches for the two bottom corners of the transom. I found the best way to get it done is gonna be to river the patches in place with a really tuff silicone we use at the shop I work at on our dry van trailers. It's some nasty stuff so on e it's on it's sealed. The metal shop down the street has been bending the aluminum for me and I couldn't be happier with the results. Tomorrow I will be putting the panels in place and riveting them in place. Transom core will be cut and sealed. Hope to have the transom and flooring going together next week. [/QUOTE]
