[QUOTE="Rat, post: 103635, member: 1914"] I got the transom shaped and cut down tonight, as well as the oversized holes drilled, for potting the fasteners, and one coat of epoxy. These 1 1/8 holes will be filled in with thickened epoxy, then drilled to 1/4" for the bolts through the transom. This way water will never get to the wood.
