14 Ft 'Ski-Boy' Restore  - Tiny-Tannic

Search Projects:   Share Thumbnails Slideshow Tutorial << >> Transon damage - The WHY and HOW the major issue with this boat, until I find more problems when I open it up, is the rotted transom. This boat does not have a slash well, the transom is 1 1/2 inch thick plywood sandwiched between glass on the inside and out. And there is no top cap on the 'motor well'. The reason the transom failed, is multiple, 1st the holes in it for OB mounting bolts, and ski tow rings, etc allowed water to leak. The HULL, the white part, and the DECK, the blue part, at the rear are not joined. There is a crack that leads directly to the wooden core of the transom on the outside of the boat where the hull and deck meet. The transom is also not tied into the deck so it can flex more that I would like, that opens up the hull deck joint and also.... The flexing HAS CRACKED THE HULL. in the lower corners of the boat at the extreme lower and outer edges of the transom the hull is cracked about 1 to 2 inches. That also allowed water up into the transom. I'll post progress as I get started. << >>
