[QUOTE="TMO8413, post: 518455, member: 9020"] Thanks for directing me to that, I like his process. I ended up taking a SS wire brush and knocked the corrosion and rust off the front and back of the transom skid. It’s pitted all the way through in some spots but just in the center. I also use a grinding disc on the steel plate plates that were sandwiching the transom skin together. I suppose next steps are to prime and paint with an anti corrosive/rust prohibitor all surfaces and then bolt the steel plates back on with SS hardware. I’ve got a nice piece of hard solid pvc/plastic that I am going to cut and use for the transom board. The transom brace is solid so I don’t think this will compromise its integrity. Only going to put a 9.9/15HP on it anyway. Thoughts on my decision? [ATTACH]122115[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]122116[/ATTACH][ATTACH]122117[/ATTACH][ATTACH]122118[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
