Project "War Wagon" begins
« on: June 06, 2011, 03:55:13 PM »
I am new to the sight, and have enjoyed many of the threads.  I am beginning the extreme makover of a 1986 271.  I will be enclosing the transom, adding a twin bracket, and powering with 2000 OX66 225's.  I have bought 200 gallons of new fuel tanks, 30 gal of H2O, and a 75 gal livewell that will be under the Birdsall leaning post. The tower and bow rail are coming off (I will make an exceptional deal to anyone interested) and a T-top somewhere in the 8'w x 10'l hardtop will be built soon.

I intend to use 26# Coosa board to replace the transom.  My question is:  Is it better to use a 1.5" solid piece, or  laminate (3) 1/2", or (2) 3/4" pieces together?  I have never used the stuff and I am looking for input.  The demolition has begun.  Will post pics as soon as my wife figures out how.

Thanks in advance,
Bob
