Hey guys so im not entirely sure what this area is called but in my bass boat where the livewell pumps go snd the boat drain whole theres a piece of wood that has gotten water logged. The wood itself seems to be a spacer between the hull fiberglass for the pumps to sit against. It does not directly connect to the transom it basically is the shape of the bottom of the boat that sits against the boat shell with fiberglass over it. The transom has its own area above. Is this area critical to transom support and strength? Im just wondering if im okay to remove this piece of wood and replace it or is it a bigger more complicated job than i think? I plan on taking it out and then cuttin piece to the same shape and then laying a couple layers of fiberglass. Ill try to get some pics but the boats at the cottage.
