    banshee transom and likely stringers

    Re: banshee transom and likely stringers i kinda found it odd that the stringers didn't go straight to the transom next step of the game is to get the front structure and ski locker out and remainder of the floor. and that will give me a bigger picture of what there is to redo and how to do...

    banshee transom and likely stringers

    Re: banshee transom and likely stringers ok these pics are straight down the transom with the plywood removed and at the bottom is the hull but somewhere in that area i expected to see something that would resemble a stringer or wood. the third image is the center of the transom where the...
