HA BEN
YOU CAN BUY GOOD BOOKS ON REPLACING TRANSOMS AND ALSO YOU CAN BUY SHIP SHAPES VIDEO ON REPLACING TRANSOMS YOU CAN ALSO LOOK ON THE NET FOR INFO ON DOING TRANSOMS I GOT A LOT OF INFO FROM THE WEST SYSTEM I BOUGHT SOME OF THEIR LITTLE BOOKLETS ON THE SUBJECT. HERE IS THEIR WEB ADDRESS THAT YOU CAN ORDER SOME OF THEIR STUFF IF YOUR LOCAL MARINE SUPPLIER DOESN’T CARRY THEIR STUFF.
http://www.westsystem.com/ AS FOR THE METHOD YOU CHOOSE THAT COULD BE A PERSONAL CALL. I CAME IN FROM THE INSIDE SINCE I WAS REDOING EVERYTHING ON THE BOAT BUT FOR YOUR SMALLER JOB I GUESS MOST PEOPLE WOULD COME IN FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE BOAT. IF I HAD TO DO MY TRANSOM AGAIN THE ONLY THING I WOULD DO DIFFERENTLY WOULD BE USING ½” MARINE PLY INSTEAD OF ¾” PLY EASIER TO WORK WITH AND YOU GET TO SOAK 6 SIDES OF THE PLY WITH EPOXY INSTEAD OF JUST 4 SIDES. IF YOU DECIDE TO DO THE WHOLE TRANSOM I THINK COMING IN FROM THE INSIDE IS THE BEST WAY FOR THE ADDED SUPPORT YOU CAN DO WHEN YOU ARE IN THERE. YOU CAN SEE SOME OF MY PICTURES ON THIS SIDE UNDER BOATS 23’ KEN MCGOVERNS. HOPE THAT HELPS IF YOU HAVE ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS I WILL TRY TO ANSWER.
