We booked another this year but we both want to hunt more often. I cant afford a guided hunt every weekend and the only good public land hunts down here are only accessible with a boat. Being that I’m poor and all, I went and bought a used jon boat. ‘82 1648 Lowe. Boat looks good, engine starts easy, all good but it obviously needs some work. I’ve replaced previous plugs made of self tapper screws and gasket washers with sealed rivets. Aluminum brazed and sealed some cracks. Done a lot of work on it with my boy’s help. It’s going to get a paint job next but I really need to replace the plywood transom and need ideas and guidance on how I can most easily and inexpensively do it myself. The rear looks to be a welded aluminum panel added somewhere down the line. I see on youtube about gluing 2 3/4” plywoods together and resin sealing. I thought about cutting the lip off the bottom channel and then replacing with new aluminum. I just cant figure how to get the old wood out and the new wood back in there. Here are a few pics. Show me the way please. Thank y’all for any help</p></blockquote><p></p>
