Trussed up boat?
|
|
April 18, 2006
We started to straighten and brace the transom so we could make an accurate pattern of the area as well as start to fill in that hull to deck gap. After looking around the scrap pile for plywood to brace the outside of the transom I found this piece that was once part of a book case. We shoved the boat forward on the bunks so we could rest this plywood on the bunks.
Once we started to clamp things up we figured out that the bowed gunwalwes were a part of or contributed to the outward bow in the deck moulding at the transom.
We clamped 2 x 4's to the gunwales to help straighten them and we also put a spreader in between the gunwales to force them out. This also tightened up the fiberglass skin at the rear of the boat. Finally we clamped the outside plywood to the uprights on the trailer to pull the transom into alignment.
