[QUOTE="Weldorthemagnificent, post: 440309, member: 22139"] That transom cap comes over pretty deep. Looks like 4-6". From the pics, it looks like it would be tough to slip the wood up underneath. Especially if you want the wood to go all the way to the bottom. I'd be inclined to zip it across the back, slide new wood in and get a local shop to make a new transom top that goes over both sides and bolt it on and either bolt or rivet corner caps back on. Might have to get a couple tabs welded on here and there to make this possible but in 5-10 years if it needs doing again, it's an afternoon job. Looks like a good solid built boat. Be worth fixing up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
