Re: Chestnut conversion into open-deck fishing Outboard

Got any pics of what you've done in the last 6 years???? Your last pic states to use nothing but Marine grade plywood for the transom and here on the forum we kinda think that's not the case. Marine Grade is top of the line when it comes to plywood for boats but a good Ext. grade when encased in resin and glass will last many decades and provides adequate strength to the boat for safety and structural integrity.

The original transom was only 1" thick?
