I was installing a new washdown pump today and it made me nervous to be driving screws into the wood where the pump is mounted. My question is: is that wood actually the transom or is there an additional piece of plywood before the transom?
Also, I put a dab of 4200 on my screws before driving them in...is that a good or bad idea?
