Yet Another Transom Job in the Works - ?ions

[Fishjack]

More Pics of "I guess" progress -

Scott - I will have to dig around to see what is in there? Not sure yet will advise.

Warthog - I like the idea of a thru-hull X-ducer.. How do they perform at speed?

Cut further down towards the bottom of the hull - you can see that one of the old 1" brass drains had a crack in it -


Can anyone say core trouble? I knew I had some soft spots on the cap.. I will tackle this project later.


Cut out the Ice boxes - Below I scraped some of the foam that is in the inside corners. Water is standing in a recess under the deck just to the right of the exposed foam.
You can reach your hand in there and feel it. The starboard side is dry as a bone. Is there some sort of drain that might be clogged???


Here is a little cleaner shot of the factory thru-hull transducer??
Also a lot of other transom jobs I have seen pics of have two stringers instead of the single stringer in the center that my boat has?


It is a B**ch getting that wood out of the bottom of the transom..


Another question - the inner skin (which is all I have left) is very thin. Should I just cut that out or try and bond my new plywood to it??

Thanks for the responses.. Jack
