It’s going to be a full transom not like the ¾ one that came out. I made a template out of some cheep press board. $8.00 at HD.  A couple of little tweaks and it fit perfect.  Not bad for just making a few measurements, well not bad for me anyway.  :LOL2: I wire wheeled the front side of the transom. Look at the deep pitting  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite15" alt=":cry:" title="Crying    :cry:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":cry:" />    JB weld to the rescue. I will sand it down tomorrow night and put on the first coat of self etching primer, a couple good coats of that, then some paint as well.   The outside of the transom is getting some 5200 were I closed up a couple of holes in the front with the above mentioned JB weld.  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />  I’m also going to steel flex the outside of the transom as well as the sponsons and hull bottom.    Here is the first piece of 0.125 I cut from the template. Making a little progress. O did I mention I got all of the foam out of the boxes. \<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />/</blockquote>
