The transom almost looks like it has a masonite outer in the pics  :cyclops:
So what am I looking at on the outside of the transom?  Are the pics of you laying in a new outer fiberglass skin? or is this the transom that you laminated together?  Like I said, it looks like masonite. Maybe the marine plywood doesn't have much grain.  :scratch:
What's the next step? Lay glass across the entire back outside and down the sides of the hull where it's ground down?

yes its the one i laminated and bagged...
im not sure why itlooks like that, its 2 layers of biax over the ply so you cant really see the grain, and i think the sun being on it in the pic washes itout or something. next itll get glassed on the outside all the way around just like the inside, possibly a whole nother layer across the back after, keep some fairing work down possibly...

layed some 1708 in the chines, and pulled evrything else out (almost by hand).
got a line on some corecell to start making stringers and bulkheads. now to get intimate with my grinder...









^just curious as to what these holes are for? not the windows, but the small hole to the left and forward of it, theres 4 of em spaced evenly apart right in front of the windows...

more progress: full layer of glass in the hull, overlapped in the keel, extending up past where the floor is going to be, and 3 layers to plug up the windows. 1" 5# corecell stringers cut out and ready to get glued and glassed in. also built a console. starting to look like something now...
