[QUOTE="bonz_d, post: 400627, member: 11276"] ACX will work just fine as I have used it on a few transoms myself over the years. I've also been laminating them together using Tite-bond 3 and so far haven't had a failure of the joint. As for sealing the plywood a member on another forum recommended this and I've been using on everything ever since. 1 part mineral spirits, 1 part boiled linseed oil and 2 parts spar urethane. Apply it until it start to pool then remove excess. Allow to dry for 48hrs and then apply 2 or 3 coats of straight spar. It will feel dry after a few hours but it really needs the extra time because of the linseed oil. You can also paint over it if you don't want to use the spar finish. I just finished doing this to the transom that I'm replacing in my Sea Nymph and also used it to seal the plywood in the decking.. [/QUOTE]
