[QUOTE="dually66, post: 226142, member: 7007"] The splashwell and surroundings are rivited on. I just had an aluminum welder out here to look at it. He felt that after removing the exterior wood, I should have a 1/4" sheet of aluminum put on the rear of boat to my specs because I need to raise the transom up anyway. The transom wood is solid but weak in comparison to the weight of the motor. I was thinking that after i installed the outer skin with new height, I would glass 2 sheets of 3/4" oak hardwood ply, (after i water seal it)...then brace it in place on inside of transom interior. Any thoughts?...or am i on right track? [/QUOTE]
