To help your rear eye problem cut them with the saw like mentioned and throw them away. You can get an eye that has nuts on both sides inside and outside. Just hand tighten the inside (probably wont get a wrench in there to tighten them well) then use the outer nuts to get them tight. You can get a small kid with little arms to reach in and put the nuts back on for you on the inside.

Did one once, no fun without an air chisel and several homemade and modified blades.

Worked on the transom today, got out the gas chainsaw and was careful with it.
Took out 95% of the wood and I got stuck on the small part left. How do I access and take off the nuts to remove the transom lifting ring? I cannot get to it with my live well being in the way...tried to get at it by removing the side vent but there is a huge amount of potter putty in the way and it looks like I would not get there anyways due to a tight fit or is this the way to go? SUGGESTIONS?????? Something else I found...the drain tube did not go all the way thru, it had 2 inches on each side and in the middle where the wood was it had nothing.....someone took a shortcut |

Try a sawzall and cut the lifting pad eye as close to the alum projection spacer. Then wedge the spacer off. Next use a o piece of 2' x 4' to pound the two pad eye pieces from the outside into the cut out transom space.

Chip away at the putty then after removal and new transom is in, you will have to install new lifting pad eyes.

But it seems like that day has come and gone but it may be picking up some steam. I was really busy with a house I bought to flip and that tied me up for awhile. |
