Transom time

[mmurphy17]

Since its a great time not to be at the office, looks like the holidays may be the time to redo my transom. I've got a 20' Seafari. This board has been an amazing resource & is one of the reasons I would even consider this.

Question is, most of the pics & descriptions are from guys with center consoles &/or outboards. Since I've got an I/O that I'm not quite ready to replace, I've got alot more structure at the stern. Looking for suggestions on where to start cutting in on the deck & cap. Or should I try to pop the deck up & get at it that way? Thanks in advance.

Pics would be great from anyone who's been there.
