First the 30" transom, it would get the top of the transom plus the splash well drains five inches higher and the engine power head that much higher out of the water. I've seen the 30" transom on quite a few and I iked it.
The fiberglass re-bar is just over kill, which I like, and thought it would be a nice addition. Rest assured the Arjay will stick to the re-bar. I don't put too much thought into such big words that start with homo.
Above my pay scale.
