Wet transom

[JohnB]

On my 23 Sceptre, the transom was wet for a couple of years before I redid it. It had a 250 Merc efi on it, there was some flex, but not excessive. There is a lot of glass in these boats, at least there was in mine. If you were closer, I would loan you my moisture meter, and you could tell exactly where and how bad it is. I have surveyed and looked at a bunch of boat for people, and almost all boats over 10 years old, especially if they were left in the water had wet transoms, regardless of manufacture. Many show no flex or weakness, but the moisture meter would show water.
