[QUOTE="Sho, post: 450271, member: 23420"] Time for an update on this project. I started working on the new transom last week. I'm using 5/8" Acx plywood bonded with almer probond max. I tried to find titebond 3 but its hard to find in Canada. The almer glue has the same waterproof rating so I'm sure it will be fine. The transom thickness turned out to be 1.25". I have it cut to size now and have drilled all the holes. I'm treating it with old timers formula then it's on to the spar urathane. I decided to continue on with the framing while I wait for the spar to dry. I'm going to be using a mix of 1.5 x .125" and 1 x .125" aluminum 6061-t6. The floor will be .090" 5052 aluminum. I'm planning to start cutting out the middle bench this weekend. I'm going to use a sawzall with a bimetal blade. I'll be adding support back to stiffen the walls. [/QUOTE]
