Re: 1965 starcraft transom rebuild
What are we looking at in pic 5?
I've never pulled a transom, so my advice is weak. Yet maybe put some bolts through the engine mount holes, and attach a chain or strong rope to them. Then use a hoist/come-along, over head, to 'lift' while you try to wiggle it. Perhaps put weight in the back of the boat, or yourself to help it budge.
If that didn't work, I'd take a yard stick and trace it out on the back. If not a 'yard stick', something else, then I'd cut a section out of the middle so you can pull the two halves inward. Then using the trace as a guide, put the 3 pieces back together with gussets.
I'd look at jasoutside's rebuild and all other resources, before trying my ideas though.
Good luck.
