[QUOTE="jclark785, post: 423881, member: 21755"] well i got it torn down , and most of the transom/soggy wood chips out , i didnt take the bracket bolts out . i didnt want it to get really floppy on me just yet . there are 3/16 flat head machine screws and i don't think they are coming out they just keep spinning . im wondering if i can get away with building/cutting the transom just wide enough to go against the edge to edge with these bolts . if not it might be pour-able transom time , im headed to the big box builder stores to see what material i can work with ...... i will have prolly 400 ish in a pourable transom material . maybe more if they consider it hazmat item . oh and its going smooth but however the aluminum for the gunnel top hangs over the transom area about a inch im wondering if i can heat that up and bend them up if i go the wood route i got to be careful under the corner casts is the s/n plate . lemme know what you guys think .
