Got the Sutphen in the shop having trannies replaced, and the TRS drives rebuilt, and the 502's checked out at Craig Colabellas shop in St. Cloud. Here are a few pics.

Are you sticking with Merctrans?

White Knuckles

Yes, I sent my 4 Merctrans trannies down to Mark at Bam for two rebuilt ones back. Also, one of the stringers has a small rotted place on it, and the stringer from the transom to the bulkhead is being replaced and glassed.

Could you tell where the water originated in the stringer? Was it from the motor mount? My engines are out now too and the transom assemblies have been off and replaced. The wood right around the openings was starting to get a little wet. The wood is sealed up with glass now. Originally the cross section of the plywood in the transom was painted.

Yes, it was from the motor mount. Here is a pic.
