[QUOTE="thill, post: 492574, member: 4972"] I strongly suggest that you go to Walmart, Lowes or wherever, and buy some Thompson's Wood preserver. That stuff is the bomb. After cutting the transom wood to size, roll it on the flats and especially on the edges of the wood. It soaks in like water. Give it an hour and apply a 2nd application, and install. I might hit it once more after the install. You will be very glad you did. It's cheap, super easy to install and effective. A garden sprayer makes it even easier to apply. We used to build sheds with raw T1-11 plywood siding, which rots very easily, especially if dirt splashes on it from the rain. We used the Thompson's, and many of those sheds are STILL looking great, 20 years later. I've had outstanding success with it in boats, too. Just make sure to get full coverage, and it just works.
