By all means, come on by and look yourself, and wouldn't that be too thick, and not too wide?









whether this transom was redone at one point or another, good question, it could have been, but thats 1 1/2 inches worth of plywood in there.

Also measuring 3/4" ply, it isn't 3/4" ply, its usually 23/32, sometimes 21 or 22. So will two "3/4 inch thick" plywood sheets fit? Yes.

But I digress because this completely retarded.

Progress in the past few weeks, all cap holes have been drilled, countersunk, and filled. Bigger ones will get glassed over soon enough.
Gonna have to suck it up and spend a couple hours a day sanding all the nonskid off the cap so I can finish fairing and filling so it'll be ready for paint when time comes.

Trying to decide how to do deck fill and rod holders that are towards midships, do I tape them for paint because I need to cut an access hole? Or I could just build backers, glass in stainless T nuts, and and be able to paint then install without any holes showing.

That must have been redone or maybe it's a special seacraft

I've done more 20 seacraft transoms than I care to count and I've never come across one that was two 3/4" sheets thick.

Given the silliness that was boats built in the early 70s, who knows. It could be the odd boat out.

Found any tshirts or any random crap like that under decks in the SCs? I know a ton of Makos have been found with that stuff. Is there anyone left alive from that time at SeaCraft? The owner of Mako boats son still posts now and then on classicmako and shares all kinds of amazing info. (The 23 IBs from The Deep were on CM a while back)

The transom on my 1975 18SF swallowed up two sheets of 3/4 coosa with a couple of layers of glass in between, easily...
