Are you leaning towards pouring a transom, using ply or composite?

Good luck.

I will be happy to help you as much as I can. I'm not a professional, but having the guys in this forum as support has been a great help during my restoration.
Don't hesitate to ask questions. I will share what I have learned.

I'm getting really close to launching my boat. I can't wait... Hopefully Friday or Saturday this week.

Fire away Poncho - what Lars can't answer someone else will help you with - or all of us will dive in, especially if you need help spending money  :72:
