    Transom Rebuild - The Saga Begins

    I glassed the holes then put the brass fitting in so if water does get in the green board will not get wet.

    Transom Rebuild - The Saga Begins

    I went through it two years ago. I ended up redoing the entire transom and glassing it completely closed. Make sure you address the brass through hulls in the motor well. I had water entering there also because one of the brass fitting had cracked. Youngs Fiberglass did my boat and I am...

    2001 Sailfish Transom - How to Access for Rebuild?

    When I was going mine transom I talk to Grady they recommend that I use wood the way the boat came from the factory. That way it would not change the way the boat sits in the water or the way it runs.

    270 Islander purchase?

    This issue is not only with the Islander it is all of the Grady white boats.
