First timer here...
So I bought a 1988 Skeeter SD 125 FS, Johnson 110. I was very excited about it, as it was maroon (I'm an Aggie), and it was in immaculate condition. Original gel coat, perfect, original seats, perfect, original carpet, perfect. Too good to be true right? RIGHT!!! As you can see in the pictures the boat looks beautiful, but the transom was worse than the mulch you put in your flower bed!! I didn't find that out until after I ponied up $5k cash to a guy who I cant find anymore.
Watched some videos of how to replace a transom and felt ok about it, but the thing that is throwing me off is this little curve in the back of the boat that was filled with foam. Now im not sure on how to put it back together once I put in a new transom. Should I put the original fiberglass skin back on and glass it in? Help me out please!!
