Why do you feel this is necessary to add fiberglass rebar? Is Arjay not structurally sufficient? Were you not happy with the rigidity of the transom? Would Arjay bond to the fiberglass rebar to make a composite? Or would it create a cold joint and weaken the homogenious Arjay pour? Very curious...because I'm leaning toward this method of rebuilding my transom and have heard you speak about the fiberglass rebar concept before but never really had a chance to discuss it thoroughly with you.

Thanks,
