I had to work today and didnt think anything was going to get done to my boat but my brother-in-law took it upon his self to start on the box in the stern. He screwed the old boxes I had cut out back in the boat and attached it to the liner with pieces of wood to hold it. Then put a 2x4 across the front so it would hold them the same distance apart like they were before I cut the floor out. Here are some pictures of what he did.
He layed a piece of penski board across the top and put batteries on either side to continue the crown of the stern across the void where the motor cutout was. Then cut a piece of penski to fit for the front of the transom box. After we get the rest of the box completed and all glassed together I am hoping the liner with a few braces, will be sturdy enough to remove the whole liner in one piece. I guess we will see. I am hoping to make some more progress next week. If anyone has any ideas on how to configure the hatches/storage in the rear box let me hear it. I am not sure what to do about that. Anyone with a full transom and wants to post some pics of yours maybe that will give me some ideas. Thanks, Adam
