[QUOTE="josher3006, post: 264102, member: 8793"] Got to working on the boat again this weekend. Picked up a 2X12 to serve as a transom, got it cut to fit, removed the rivets on the reinforcement panel to allow the new one to go in. For the transom, I first epoxied and laid mat on the edges of the transom, then placed a layer of mat/resin over the face. That was followed up with a sand colored camo paint to protect the epoxy from UV. Here are some pics: [url=https://rides.webshots.com/photo/2546273010065863660lRRgTj][img]https://inlinethumb61.webshots.com/892/2546273010065863660S600x600Q85.jpg[/img][/url] If you dont believe in the evils of pressure treated wood, here are some pics of my experience firsthand. Some of this corrosion made pinholes in the transom [url=https://rides.webshots.com/photo/2712179690065863660KtlGKl][img]https://inlinethumb31.webshots.com/45342/2712179690065863660S600x600Q85.jpg[/img][/url] Here it is all fitted and bed with 5200....now the waiting for it to cure begins. This week I will be working on fitting and fiberglassing the floor. [/QUOTE]
