[QUOTE="Dowellz, post: 424273, member: 21494"] Finally pulled the transom. Wow was it in horrible condition. Absolutely water logged and I could put a screw driver through it without much effert. No clue how it held my 85hp motor. I have some questions about epoxy. I found a link saying to use 635 thin epoxy with medium hardener. Is that the right stuff? Will 1 quart be enough? Here are some pictures! Used a ratchet strap to help pull the wood out.

The entire left side was completely rotten.
