I never liked pourable transoms either but do think they work well tho.

Long as you got good glass on either side of the core, the center core don't matter as much. Most of the strength is in the skins on either side.

I started believing in it more after the scarab with the triple 400+ HP outboards did his with that stuff. He has like 1200 HP and over 1500 lbs of outboard on his and can run 80 something and hasn't had issues with his poured transom yet.

Would I ever do one, NO. But are they a method that will work and suffice. YES
