    So the guy I bought this boat from gave me a piece of wood to use for a transom. Would you guys use it? Looks like marine plywood.

    So my plan is to replace the transom remount the motors and then take the boat to a marina and see what it would cost to get the motors running / tuned up. That may change once I get find out what it will cost.

    Also what's the strategy for drainage? I tore out 1 floor drain infront of the cabin door. Was that the only one? Anyone do anything different when they rebuild theses boats?

    Has anyone tried part pink sheet foam part pour in foam? Seems like when I eas taking the old foam out it was the bottom 4" that was completely saturated. What if I did the bottom 4" in pink foam board and poured foam over that?

    I was just trying to figure out how this thing goes back together. Basically all the wood in mine was so rotten it crumbled so I didn't get to really see how it was supposed to come apart.

    Can anyone recommend a good cleaner? Theres like this scum in some areas under where the foam was. Wire wheel removes it but it's slow.

    Like 99% foam free. I think I'll do a little more cleaning and then I'll try and get the motors off so I can start digging the old transom out.

    Think I should put this tank back in? What kind of modifications can I do when I start putting her back together for better performance?

    Great success! Was probably 30 gallons of this old gas in the tank. Lol
