First of all... I assume this plate has a name but I couldn't find it.
Anyways mine is crumbling so I drilled out the 4 rivets holding it to the inner transom board (itself in good condition) and removed it to use as a template. It's a scant ¼" thick so I want to replace it with a thicker piece. Considering using ordinary 11/32" (9mm) bcx plywood. Is that acceptable for infrequent use? Should I consider pvc trim board?
This is on a 12-foot aluminum boat that only gets about 4hrs use each year.
