Committed this weekend to rebuilding my transom. Been watching it for 10 years. Finally time. Some flex on starboard side. Cracking under rub rail. Swollen transom under bang cap. Cracking around hold down u-bolt.
Both engines electrically/mechanically disconnected from the boat. Four bolts on each engine hold them in. Got steel shipping frames from Robbie at Bluewater to hold the engines while I do the reconstruction work. Replacing plywood with Bluewater Coosa Board. Stringers suspect too.
