Poured the first of three 5 gal buckets of Seacast into the transom. I removed the inner skin to get all the wood out, then glassed it back prior to pouring.

looks good. I thought you were going to switch to 25"

Maybe that was the other guy?

I am increasing the transom to 25”. I deliberately waited to raise it to give me better access to the lower portion of the transom for the 1st pour.

I added the inner skin of the transom cutout yesterday. The plan today or tomorrow is to pour the second of 3 five gallon buckets of Seacast. FYI the spacers are not set and are not going in those locations.

The second pour was delayed until last night. The before pic has most spacers visible. The other two photos were post pour.

While you have it opened up, don't forget to re-do your deck drains/hoses/scuppers.

I had a hard time finding original sizes. Ended up changing to new & bigger stainless scuppers

Nice work you will enjoy it for years to come, I did mine back in 2007/08 with Arjay pourable, I removed the outside skin and remove the rotten wood and pour, to this day not a single problem to report, not to mention I have an etec 135 HO pushing it with all that torque, no flexing.

it's looking good, i do have a question , you used a chainsaw to hollow out the rotten wood, did you go all the way to the edge?

Yes, every piece of wood in the transom was removed. This was made easier because I removed the splash well and inner transom skin.

Poured the last 5 gal bucket of Seacast which topped off the transom and wings. Capped the transom, next is capping the wings.
