[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 19863, member: 55"] I have had boats from the 50s that had wood on the outside of the transom, and boats from 1997 that had wood on the outside. That style of transom, was very common throughout the 50s and 60s. I would bet that the inside of the transom has wood too. And, being out in the open, many think it would rot real quickly, but it doesn't. It drains off, and leaves no place for moisture to collect, and thereby rot the wood. And, if it did need changing, you pull 6 easy to get to bolts and it comes right off. Now, if many companies still did this, especially on welded boats, it would make lotsa things a whole lot easier.
