[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 490524, member: 21536"] That is a nice boat -- The old Bayrunners are popular around here for Bay and Delta. I've not done what you are asking about so can't really offer any advice based on actual experience. Judging from the nyloc nuts I see on that center transom brace, I would say this has been done before, or at least those original fasteners have been replaced. If you can remove the two corner boxes the old transom wood could be dropped straight down. Problem is that center brace would be in the way and it is welded to the bottom. Perhaps cut thru the welds holding the upright part of that brace, replace the wood, then have it welded back? If that is feasible you wouldn't have to remove the top channel or corner caps. Just seat-of-the-pants on my part through. [/QUOTE]
