Post by: Caldozx6rr on June 11, 2020, 11:17:45 AM: Two layers of 1708 inside the 2" lip of the old transom to build it up level with remaining layers. Three layers over that tabbed at 4", 8", and 12". Next step is to cut the coosa is there an easy way to "stencil" the current shape of the transom?
Title: Re: 78' 22-2 Rebuild (First time doing this)
Post by: RickK on June 11, 2020, 03:22:09 PM: Good progress.
Before you get to the next step you might consider adding a PVC pipe to the transom before you move the low point too far forward.

Here is a link to where I explain the thought of the PVC pipe
http://classicaquasport.com/smf/index.php?topic=13148.msg133124#msg133124

Here is a link to where I show what is actual problem
http://classicaquasport.com/smf/index.php?topic=13148.msg133556#msg133556

Here is a link to Hawgleg's rebuild that shows the PVC pipe installation to keep a drain at the new low point of the boat
http://classicaquasport.com/smf/index.php?topic=13148.msg134262#msg134262

Also, when you take a picture with your phone try to remember to hold the phone horizontal so the lens is to the left. That will make the pic orientation marker correct for forums. I rotated the pics in your gallery.

Post by: Caldozx6rr on June 11, 2020, 10:09:40 PM: Thanks Rick yeah I realized the phone thing after! I plan on putting the pvc in today or tomorrow. Thanks for the reminder

Getting there!
Title: Re: 78' 22-2 Rebuild (First time doing this)
Post by: Fishhead on October 20, 2020, 12:42:40 PM: Looks good keep progress going. How much foam did you end up using in your stringers? Hope I ordered enough. What size tank did you end up getting ? Good job
Title: Re: 78' 22-2 Rebuild (First time doing this)
Post by: RickK on October 20, 2020, 01:57:08 PM: I hope you allowed 2% for the gas tank to grow once it gets gasoline in it. That's 2% in every direction. Progress looks good.
Title: Re: 78' 22-2 Rebuild (First time doing this)
Post by: Caldozx6rr on October 21, 2020, 11:16:30 AM: I forget the exact amount of foam used but it was around 800$ worth. And the tank is a 55 Gallon tank from Moeller. Thanks Rick it’s still just sitting on top of the foam. What are the consequences of not allowing the expansion space?
Title: Re: 78' 22-2 Rebuild (First time doing this)
Post by: RickK on October 21, 2020, 06:01:12 PM: They say the tank could crack or crack the surrounding area.
Title: Re: 78' 22-2 Rebuild (First time doing this)
Post by: Caldozx6rr on November 04, 2020, 09:42:19 AM: Anyone know if a Bobs 14inch offfset jackplate would work? Not a huge fan of the cost of a Porta-Bracket.....
Title: Re: 78' 22-2 Rebuild (First time doing this)
Post by: RickK on November 04, 2020, 11:17:07 AM: The problem with a jack plate is they don't raise up enough for you to tilt the engine up and over a full transom.
Title: Re: 78' 22-2 Rebuild (First time doing this)
Post by: Tampa Bay Mike on November 04, 2020, 01:21:38 PM: I looked at that option when I did mine but ended up finding a used porta bracket instead. I was able to clean it up, replace a few things and wire it up for less than the cost of the 14" jackplate. Bob's also makes additional spacers if you need a little more clearance but that additional cost just made the porta a better choice for me.
Title: Re: 78' 22-2 Rebuild (First time doing this)
Post by: Caldozx6rr on November 11, 2020, 08:45:42 PM: Thanks Mike I think I’m going with a porta bracket.
