Ill take some more pics of it after grinding. I ran out of daylight tonight. Got to busy working on the transom.

That's my plan. ThanksDVeasey said:You want to make sure that you coat both sides and all the edges with a few coats of spar urethane to be sure that it doesn't absorb any water. Also, I'd reccommend hitting the bolts with some 5200 when you attach the new transom to seal them as well. Seal it up good and it'll last you quite a while!
Talons said:Hey dude, that undercoating stuff is GREAT! At undercoating! I use it on all my trailers, except the one I have now because it is in the shop, but it will be undercoated when I get it back.
don't think I would use it on the transom. The reason is because it will, as I remembe it, always be slightly tacky. It is designed to be that way. It is designed to repell water and salt from the underside of cars. When I say salt, I mean the kind they put down when it snows. It is different than an spray on bed liner product which is supposed to dry completely.
If you do use it, please let us all know how it goes and whether it is still the tacky type of formula I remember or if it dries completely.
If you use the bed liner stuff, let us know about that as well.
Good Luck, man!
Thanks! Ive been fishin this weekend. Havent got a chance to work on it. But hopefully I can Monday!
(P.S. I wasnt going to use it for my transom) but thanks for the advice!
