Transom Repair

[jorgeinmiami]

Well I have gotten some things done on the boat in the last week.
Not much but I have been busy with work and things.

Basically I have the rotten wood out of the transom and the transom skin and the interior skin grinded and ready to go Taking out the wood from under the lip was a pain but my chain saw did the job.

The floor has taken out and the floor skins and the bottom skin has been grinded also.
Still need to grind down where the glass will be faired in.

I have taken out 95% of the hardware off the hull and just need a few more items.

Now here is where I found some additional work for me.

The cap in front and above the anchor locker is soft. I would like to take off the cap and redo it now but I cringe at the thought of doing it.

One thought would be to cut the cap a little behind the affected area and leave the gunnels alone.

I guess the rebuild list just keeps getting bigger but I can look forward to some cooler weather to work with.

And after all the "rough" work is done my original plan is to have someone finish and paint the hull.
