1990 272 SR1 Transom rebuild
 

Hey guys, just got a 1990 272 SR1 with a rotten transom. I’m wondering if anyone has done one of these? Looking for some heads up and possibly some pics.

It is a big job for a DIYer but not impossible depending on your skilset. Engine/drive needs to come out along with everything mounted to the transom. Swim platform too. Go on utube and look up fishbumptv. That guy has a full catalog of videos on what you will need. Good luck. 👍

Lots of threads in the Paint, Detailing, Fiberglass section. Here is one of many

ErikV,

And get ready for scope creep. It's virtually impossible to escape from what I've observed..

Thanks. Brad.

First off, thanks! It’s not my first rodeo, I did my cigarette back in the early 2000’s unfortunately it was before smart phones and what knows what happened to those pics. I appreciate the responses, was looking for specifics for this boat. Experiences even. This is my next winter project and sitting until then. I’ll start a thread when I get started. I’m sure I’ll have lots more questions along the way.
