Default Re: Transom suggestions/recommendations needed

Fellowship/All,
If you had to pick a coring material for a transom, what would you pick?
I recorred my fuel hatch/etc with divincell, and really like the stuff. It's only been in there a month, but it is lighter and stiffer the when I have used plywood in the past. The only thing I am concerned about is compressing it with bolts. I'm am not convinced it would hold up as well as plywood does when compressed by mounting bolts. There are probably things you could do like put a brass/stainless collar insert in the holes.
What does everyone think???
