    Stringers

    Good day....I have finished my transom and engine and outdrive back in place. Stringers are tabbed in but not finished. I need to move my boat about a 20 min drive. Is it safe to do so or will I crack something

    Alignment tool stuck

    I went and bought a good slide hammer set...welded a chain on straight...a few smacks and out she came. I them did some trial and errors and got the tool sliding fully in and easy out. Thanks gentleman

    The drive came off easy and I didn't change bearing. What did change and I should have mentioned is the transom has been rebuilt. I'm guessing the holes are off a tad. Can't be much though or it wouldn't have slid in relatively easy. I'll weld

    Stringer install

    Just out of curiosity is there a reason not to use short strand fiberglass filler.

    Stringer install

    My understanding is to not use pl adhesive or will that be fine so long as there no voids between hull and stringer
