[QUOTE="TMO8413, post: 518493, member: 9020"] I’m just talking about sandwiching the front and back of the transom skin in 1/4 aluminum to reinforce and give more strength to the missing and corroded transom skin. I’ll likely 3M 5200 on both sides, bolt it down with stainless, and vice grip for a week. That way, when I go to put in my plywood or plastic/pvc, I’ll have a solid backing to support a motor. I hope I am making sense. I was going to go T6 aluminum but that sounds like overkill. Anyone know of 5052 aluminum would be just as strong? Thanks again all. I’ll include pictures once I spend a small fortune…. [/QUOTE]
