before cutting out i had wedged the sides of the boat to the uprights of the trailer so the hull  did  not go out of shape,

whilst working on the transom i put a strap aarond the hull till i had compled the stern

the courners on the tansom wer cut down as well as the the new size well

this is what remaied fron removing the weet woodstill had to rub it down and clean the airea.also had to smouth  nthe iner transom face

ther was plenty of old wet foam and body shell to get rid off

i made a blank from cardbord made it fit, then layed it on the ply drew around it and cut it out.

when fixing it in i had to trim it down to fit but i ened up wit a snug fit

here you can see the new transome and the back of the outboard well

new deck 20 mill ply coated on bouth sides with glass and resen , new serpots , the trasom was made of 2 20 mill ply with glass and resen and finised off with a coat of resen to seal any gaps were filled with fiber fill or filler coverd with 2 to 3 fiber resen the courner transom to hull had 4 layers

having cut the deck out the roten tansome out (whilt makeing hundreds of wood lice homles )

this is what my boat shoul look like new

the well and rotton trasom
