[QUOTE="Ringo Steele, post: 301370, member: 6694"] Looks like your transom is not getting proper support due to the wood being planks instead of a solid sheet as it looks to have been designed to have judging by the braces. I would suggest removing the wood, getting the cracks re-welded, and installing new wood. Exterior plywood sheeting works well, looks like yours needs to be about 1.5" thick, so glue 2 sheets of 3/4" together, and seal it up good. The braces will then give a lot better support than they are now. [/QUOTE]
