  • Although I didn't have shop time this week, this is still something that I wanted to put together to see the progression of the transom upgrade / replacement start to finish in a single video :-)
    Hope you enjoy as much as I had fun putting this together!
    Have a great weekend and as always thank you!

    Watching the transom rebuild little by little over the course of months did not do justice to the amount of work it was. This vid puts that in perspective. Very well done!

    Just found out something really cool. I was watching an episode of The Duracell Project and Mads stated he kept his rollers in an acetone bath. I had a roller clogged with cured epoxy so left it in a plastic pot of acetone for 3 or 4 days after winch the epoxy had comply softened. All I had to do is scrape it off with a screwdriver and it’s as good as new. Every days a school day!
    Love you new workshop.
    Cheers Ian

    What a huge amount of work. I don't even remember when you started to work on this transom.
    Now it's easy to understand why so many boats with a rotten or just damaged transom end up in a scrapyard. It is not economically reasonable to have it fixed by a professional.
    This boat was very lucky to find you on her way!

    Wow
    Talk about putting a time capsule onto the amount of work that took. Fantastic.
    Each time you worked on it you explained what was going on and the challenges you were having. Somehow with this video, all the other videos come together in your mind as you watch and the immensity of the transom rebuild comes together and the amount of knowledge you have put out is gathered together as a whole. Thanks for the series.

    This video made the journey seem virtually painless. I've enjoyed watching the process and admire how you were able to maintain momentum, after the hectic year you have had. It looks better than factory- maybe you should get a plug and craft a boat from scratch, the way they should be built!

I've almost completed a 10ft by 3.5ft swim platform with steps either side using your fibreglassing techniques so thanks for that! Question, do you have any videos on repairing the Hull paint work? There's a few scuffs that need filling etc but mainly OK, just like to know how to go about getting it ready to repaint. Thanks

    Wow lots of work! I was wondering if you could give me an opinion on how i should approach my project? I have a 1996 maxum 2300 cc; The boat has an inboard sterndrive setup but the back of the boat is not flat; what would you recommend for me to do if I want to put an outboard on it? should I just cut out the the back of the transom and try to reshape the back flat and put a bracket on it? or do it where I shape it enough where the outboard can just sit on top of the transom like how new boats are made? Would love your input.
