[QUOTE="jweir, post: 281464, member: 9834"] Thanks for the Welcome. I haven't had the 14 in the water yet. The PO had replaced the transom plywood with 2 x 10 PT and had made some "custom" raised floors with PT 2 x4's and PT ply. Home 12 hours and the floors were gone. Not too much damage from the PT contact. Now the 2 x10 is gone and we started laminating the new ply transom. I'm new to this aluminum boating, I have SS bolts to attach the transom knees through the wood and through the aluminum transom. I bought some nylon washers and planned on using those with some 4200 to try to avoid galvanic reactions. Do you think this is safe? I also need to replace the rear grab handles (missing) and can find chrome bronze, but no aluminum...again any recommendations appreciated. I plan on posting on projects page if that's OK and will accept any constructive criticism to help me learn. Thanks again, -J [/QUOTE]
