New transom
I've fabricated a new transom and stuck it in. I didn't take any pics of the process since my Canon PowerShot camera crapped out. I've since gotten it back from the repair center so I'll start keeping a better log of my progress.

Anyway, I made a template of cardboard then thin ply then used the plywood template to cut two bits out of 3/4" marine grade ply. These I glued together with Clark Craft GL-10 super glue (www.clarkcraft.com). The laminated joint is now stronger than the plywood itself.

Harbor Freight had 3" C Clamps on sale for $1.99 and deep jaw clamps for $7.99 so I stocked up. At the bottom of the transom where the clamps wouldn't reach I wedged 4 2x4s between the transom and the seat base. Hopefully I have a tight fit with no voids. I do like a tight fit.
