[QUOTE="DOBSONFLY, post: 304340, member: 11090"] Family donated to the cause with a Mercury Merc 60 - 6 HP motor (ended up being 6HP originally thought it was bigger but just thought Id set the record straight), was running when it was put into storage. Post more on that later. In the next week or two would like to get the transom replaced and the boat painted. When it comes to the transom after reading many threads I am planning on using a marine grade non-pressure treated plywood glued and doubled up, stain and finish it with spar urethane varnish. Will be using all stainless steel hardware for putting it back in.

The aluminum extruded rim and gussets will be brushed back like original. Seat wood was rotted of course so looking at another project to the list, rebuild seats. [/QUOTE]
