HELP!
our sailing clubs large jon boat transom was rotted, and I removed the wood last weekend.
Now I need ideas on how to replace the transom!
*We don't think this boat can be welded, due to age, and aluminum corrosion. -so we have not removed any of the rivets, as we don't think they can be reattached (support brackets).
we are thinking of doing some kind of 3 piece transom and a long brace to hold it together, and some through bolts, (above waterline). -(This is the race committee boat for dingy racing, & max hp will be 8. )
suggestions appreciated!
