Here is my never ending project, new transom, new paint and some bottom blueprinting.

Old plywood removed and 5 layers off 450gr added.



fitting the New plywood.



New Birch plywood in press. Bottom soda blasting




Ready to cut the hole, 17.5" X-dimension.







Ready to install stringers, engine mounts stil missing

Any progress is progress. How long have you been working on it and did you ever have it on the water?

Bought the Hull without engines. Started 2 months ago.

Nice work!

Is that bracket coming off transom assembly for locating motor mounts, if so that’s pretty neat. I imagine someone could make something like that for every boat that stringers are getting chopped out of even if not going from twin to single engine. Post more pics as you go, seems like it’s coming along nicely

Fitting stringers

that bracket is merc engine install tool, it has sliding shaft wich is pushed thru the gimbal bearing and liners thru the inner assembly plate.

Looks very nice lot's of attention to detail,
i would like to see one of those stringers turned upside down to see what they look like and how thick they are.
how many layers of tabbing to install?
everything looks nice keep the thread updated with plenty of info and pics.

someone was looking for that tool a couple days ago, i know its for locating the mounts but i like the idea of having a jig to set the stringers in the boat plumb level and sqaure.

sides 6mm thick, 8mm thick on top.

Bottom has 3mm deep hook in the first 6 feet from the transom, starting from inner lifting strakes, allmost to bottom of the V.
