Transom question

[cSickNick]

John,

In line with Jason, i would probably think about adding a notch to the notch.

For example, usually the transom is 1 1/2" thick. Router a 1/2" pocket so that you could "tongue and groove" the 5" piece made of say 3 pieces of 1/2" ply laminated together.

Pre-drill to add a few long screws(keep them under 25"!) and then glass in.

Also, I remember someone tried to add "SEACAST", but with poor results.

My few thoughts .....
