[QUOTE="BYOB Fishing, post: 144432, member: 1756"] I've taken some photos of the transom, and my plans to replace it. First, it looks like I will need to cut the welds that hold the rear cross member and corner caps. After that, I can drill out the rivets that hold the caps and cross member, and lift the whole assembly off. From there, I should be able to drill rivets to remove the angle braces on the bottom of the transom. (The top is rolled over, so the new transom will have to be slid into place from the bottom up) After that, I can drill the rivets on the access panels on both sides of the bilge. From there, I should be able to pull the transom down, over the top of the lip, and out. That's probably the easy part....I'll still have to find someone to re-weld everything I cut up. :-) Let me know what you think of that plan...Here are the photos: [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSCN1106.JPG"]14622._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSCN1107.JPG"]14623._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSCN1108.JPG"]14624._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSCN1109.JPG"]14625._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSCN1110.JPG"]14626._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSCN1111.JPG"]14627._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSCN1112.JPG"]14628._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSCN1113.JPG"]14629._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSCN1114.JPG"]14630._xfImport[/ATTACH] Thanks, Matt [/QUOTE]
