Go to uscomposites.com and take a look at their 635 epoxy with a medium hardener. Up side of using epoxy is a longer workability for the first timer. Keep in mind if you choose to use epoxy you will have to use a binderless stitched mat as opposed to a standard ounce an a half mat that is normally used with poly, and yes you will need one layer of fiberglass between each layer of wood. Also you cannot use any type of gelcoat to brush coat the bilge, it will have to be painted.
The only fiberglass you will need is ounce and a half mat and a 1708 or 1808 bi-ax. I wouldnt bother with the roving Nytex is way easier to work with and you only need two layers.
another neat trick that really dosent cost alot is a method for putting pressure on the transom while it cures. as Chris said earlier drill through existing holes and through bolt. But for areas where there may not be an existing hole try using a few of these

i use 4 of them (under $30) to aid in applying pressure in those tough areas. |
Thanks for the idea Dave going to get abuout 4 of them.
