Superior strength! The transom is rock solid.

And yes, it's a little heavier, but not more than 50 lbs compared with a regular transom.

The drives came of a 42’ Cougar in England, and I bought them last year for a very reasonable price.
They are used with very few hours, and looks like new.

Absolutely awesome KV! It inspires me to attack my transom. What is the procedure for going all fibreglass?

Can you describe or at least send us to a link on how to do an all fiberglass transom. I think your work would be greatly appreciated by everyone contemplating this on their boat.
