[QUOTE="Y_J, post: 411537, member: 14258"] I've got a question for those of you with more experience than I at rebuilding these boats. I've been working at cutting out the aft deck and the cutout for all the OB lines to go down through. On the width of that cutout I've got it at 2" from the outside of the transom braces. That is 1/2" from the outside of the foot of the braces that are bolted to the transom. Now my ??? is just how far inside the boat should I cut it out at? Should I go to where it is flush with the aluminum cross member? or should it be shallower than that by a bit? I want to know what y'all say before I make that last bit of the cutout (I think I've heard it call a splash well). Thanks in advance for any help or recommendations you make. [/QUOTE]
