Removed transom from the inside. Sanded down to original casting fibre. Still solid. Lots and lots of sanding and grinding to do. Taking a small break for a day or two. Will post progress when i start again.

Transom out!! Damn it was hard work.

Started taking her apart to see what i have to deal with. I got my work cut out for me here!! But, looking forward to the project.

After 3 days i managed to get her home.

Standing in the open for 15 years....even the rims and bearings were rusted solid. First had to remove the drums (could unskrew the wheel nuts), get new bearings, new rims and decent 2nd hand tyres just to remove her from here and get her home.

Great to hear. Will do.
