This just in from SBTV....some shots of the transom glassed in!
I had decided to go with a small splash well type set up as opposed to a full transom. The transom was cut assuming motors would be mounted directly to the transom.
This required a height increase of about 2-3 inches above were the lowest part of the transom was on the current models built, (assuming a 20'' mid section on the motors).
JC also decided not to have a notch in the transom, just flat straight across. So in effect, you have as close to a full transom as you can, but still can mount engines directly to the transom if you want, or jack them back if you want, so best of both worlds I guess
The last picture is what the current transom cut out looks like on the current existing model, so imagine it coming up about 3 inches from the bottom part of the notch (that notch is like 6 inches in total)

I also like the fact that you guys raised the transom up some...will be a major difference when you put twins.
The original was way low even with a single...

Yea, I like the way it is coming out. Then there will be a small splash well in front of the transom with a removable insert to tilt the engines up fully if you want
