Default 27 seedster winter project

It is slow in here so here are some pics of me redoing the transom for a bravo set up. This is my first transom job but I will tell you it is pretty easy.I hope to have it gassed up next week. I only have 2 days a week to work on it. Any suggestions

Man those pics bring back some memories. One suggestion I can give is use some cardboard strips (about 3" wide) and a hot glue gun to make your template for the new transom. Here are some pics for motivation

What are you going to set your X at? The exhaust under the rubrail puts the pipes close to the water..better get some flaps. This is what mine looked like before.

18 also. Worked out great. But I had to go above the rubrail with my exhaust.

I am going to put them just under the rubrail it is too loud in the cockpit with the dry exhaust. I love the sound but if I have people in the back they need ear plugs it is f--king loud
