Transom rebuild outsid skin bad

[hiliner222]

Well i'll need some input on this one. I've done a few transomes from the inside but thats with keeping the outside skin in tact, tha shape, finish and integredy intact. This is dfifferent for me. The inside skin is good and intact. The core is gone obviously. It was saturated and froze so it split the outside glass, eeks. My concern is getting it back to shape and getting it blended into the sides and bottom with the correct strength. Should i leave the inside and gut out the core from the outside? Then adhere the new core to the inside skin and then glass the outside to the core? Or remove both skins and sttart from the outside and work in? Maybe leave a 2" section of the inside skin? Just thinking about tabbing the outside new skin to the inside of sides and inside of bottom for strength before adding the core. Core being Marine ply. Any pro input will be helpful. Not a professional fiberglasser for sure but have done a few projects. Transom outside replacement is new to me, thanks. I have some scary pics to put up to see what i mean. Shame the rest of the boat is solid. see pics.
