Actually, that bowing in the picture with the red level is from the compression of the inner and outer assemblies squeezing the rotten wood!

Still removing and labeling but almost done. Hopefully, I can start the fiberglass work just as summer kicks in! Notice the corrosion on the gimbal; now I know why the boat almost sank at the ramp.

Looks like the culprit was the after market trim tabs and exhaust pipes.

That transom looks really thin for some reason, maybe just the pictures. When you put the new wood in the transom make sure that you are not recreating that 'bow' where the drive mounts up, it was probably created when they put the wood in the boat originally but didnt do a good job fitting it at the corner or bottom where the glass is thicker.
use the corebond stuff... its great... and buy a full face respirator... now...
Actually if I were to do it again, I wouldn't do it without a supplied air setup... but thats just me.

Do I need to be worried about how hull is supported on trailer now that I have removed transom and rear stringers?

This is wet wood that was removed by hand!

Starboard, center and port stringer removed.

Over all stringers solid except for ends.
