Re: Seafari transom outboard rebuild
Sorry to hear about your wet transom! Does it flex if you stand on lower unit? One advantage of a bracket is that they spread the engine load across entire transom vs. conventional mount putting all the load in small area of about 1 sq. ft.
Don Herman does transoms from outside - just leave ~3" of original skin all the way around edge so you'll have something to fair the new skin to. I've heard about the pour-in stuff but don't know much about it, or how you'd get the old wet wood out - maybe from the top with a chainsaw! I'd send Don a PM about it.
