[QUOTE="Pale_Horse_Idaho, post: 512890, member: 35352"] Got the inside of the boat painted today where the transom goes. It had rubbed raw and slight oxidization I primered and painted today as the sun was out. Its been very cold here for painting. The new transom wood now has 2 coats of oil based top coat paint. I cheaped out and skipped the 2 part paints at 100 per. I was able to get a local metal fab shop to cut and bend the new trim and screw plate for motor. Question: Is it better to clamp the new transom in place and drill holes through the wood and line up with existing metal skin holes. Or lay old transom on new and drill holes? I only get one shot at this to be right. [/QUOTE]
