[QUOTE="Weldorthemagnificent, post: 467908, member: 22139"] I've seen these old ouachitas. Good boats but transom definitely not designed to be serviced. Your best bet is to enlist the help of a local aluminum welder. The transom caps will have to come off and zip off the top of the transom at the top corners. You should be able to slide new board in and replace the top by either welding back, or what I have done in the past is make a transom cap in an inverted U shape that will bolt over the top. Then you can weld the corner caps on or make them where they bolt on. Sent from my CLT-L04 using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
