Wet Transom Too

[Rich]

Need some advice on what to do.

Turns out my transom is in rough shape(not as solid as I previously thought). The boat had a 1/4" peice of aluminum wrapped over the transom. When I took it off I found that the fiberglass was cracked all along the top. Also found that all five transom drains(3 splashwell, 2 transom wells) were cracked and in bad shape. I cleaned out the drains and felt a lot of moisture. I decided to cut away a 10" x 12" piece of the fiberglass "skin" on the back of the transom. It was really wet. The wood seems to be somewhat stable, it's not like mulch. Or I may be just kidding myself. What to do?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.
