[QUOTE="Bobsbaits, post: 330766, member: 12589"] Pretty productive weekend. I got all the transom, decks and bad foam out. Got it cleaned up and a coat of putty over the pitted transom. I couldn't believe how rotter the transom was. It fell apart right in the center. Only the very ends were not rotten, the rest is completly gone. There was also pitting in the transom from the soaked, rotten wood. The foam in the floor in the back was soak and really heavy. Water oozed out everywhere as I pulled the foam out. Once I got the foam out and cleaned the floor, I put water in and marked the leaks in the bottom. There were 4 leaking rivets and 3 small cracks right under the keel. Tracker certainly never intended for anyone to take thes boats apart the way they assembled them and then poured foam in on top of everything. Next step, build a new transom. [/QUOTE]
