[QUOTE="Johny25, post: 348135, member: 7791"] Pulled the transom today.....what a stubborn SOB that was to get out. Darn rivet ends from the aluminum tag serial number toward the bottom of the transom inside the boat and on the outside top corner had ahold of it and I couldn't see it. But she came out in one piece non the less. Tomorrow I will be picking up the wood to make a new one. This time it will be sealed with spar varnish or sealer so it lasts longer. I was very surprised as it looks like it came factory with just regular untreated exterior plywood? :shock: I can push a 6 inch flat head screwdriver all the way down in it so I wasn't going to hang my V4 looper on that ha ha ha.
