Yet Another Transom Job in the Works - ?ions

[Fishjack]

Strick -

I will drill some "test" holes tomorrow - I have a optical scope that I use to look into areas like that and will see what I can see. It really works good.

That "built in transducer" is now GONE.. I'm not sure if it was factory?? I figure it was probably factory because it was installed just under the original tank.
It had one layer of heavy woven over it with a wedge made from a 2x4 on either side of the center stringer. It was installed from the bottom of the boat encapsulated in 5200 (at least that is what it smelled like) and THEN glassed over with the woven roven. The 5200 or whatever was still green in the middle - it evidently was never was exposed to air and never cured.

Anyway - I am going to try and find another location for my fresh water tank..

I am planning on installing my new fuel tank all the way up to the back side of the front storage locker (the hatch just in front of the console) to get as much weight forward as possible.
