    Where I can find information on what type of wood. size and how to go about making new trim around my boat? I just put a new plywood deck,

    I am painting the trim so the type of wood isnt super important. I have the old trim but some of it is rotten and broken and will not fit anymore as the deck is now thicker than before, I also did some transom repair and now the transom is too thick to hold my motor, What do I do?
