[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 517015, member: 21536"] Welcome to TinBoats! You are in the boat $$vortex now! That is a nice rig. You did a nice job cutting out that center seat. Since you asked, it looks like the boat hangs pretty far off the back of the trailer and the bunks are not under the transom. The transom should be fully supported by the bunks. If you keep that trailer you might be able to shift the boat forward on the trailer. Then if needed extend the bunks so they are under the transom. The raw edge of the transom plywood should be well sealed. To protect the raw plywood edge and prevent water from seeping between it and the transom I might consider putting an aluminum U-channel wide enough (1.5"?) to cover the whole transom top. It looks to me like the corner caps are bolted on. If so it would be easy to remove them, put the channel then put the corner caps back on. Enjoy! [/QUOTE]
