Transom replacement

Covering with mat and reinforcing the entire area. Up to 6 layers of mat were used in the high stress areas with 3 on the others.

While at it, my props were refurbished by my dad who does this for a living. pm me should you need a decent repair and balance on stainless or aluminum

Howzit guys,
Been a while since my last update, covid and workIve completed the replacement and all worked out well, here is some more pics of the boat which is about 98% complete.
Most of what we did since the last post includes:
- An entire electrical replacement.- Replaced the coffin hatch with a bigger one, now takes 6 cans.- Installed a proper false transom to house the batteries with a nifty livewell. I added 110mm luna tubes just in case- new carpets.-Rod rack.- Some cleaning up on the engines side of the false transom. tried something with creepy pipe....

So far so good, I picked up issues with the live-well water level when running close to plane, had to add a highspeed pickup. worked like a champ, now im overflowing, will need a bigger overflow....
