took her under the knife (need some opinions)

bushwacker - Yup going with (2) 3/4" of Bluewater 26, glad to hear he used the same. Thanks for catching that, I can see now that it could create a stress point. So the last layer be just slightly larger than the transom with consecutively larger layers under that, 4 layers sound sufficient or should I beef it up and go with 5? Should there be any kind of mat or something between the layers or just need 1708?

McGillicuddy - Thanks for the picture! Something like that is exactly what I'm looking to do, good to know my brain is at least on the right track.

Buying the materials in the next day or two, should be getting to work on it later this week. Pictures to come.
