More Transom Prep

Today was challenging. Since the transom was so wet, I decided to remove it all the way to the bottom of the hull. The tough part was that even though the wood was wet, it was actually in pretty good shape. This made it tough to cut and remove. I ending up doing it in small sections which made it time consuming. It actually might have took longer to remove this final 5 inches then it did the rest of the transom. Next, I will dig out the remaining 1/4" of wood left at the bottom and probably remove the 2" tabs I left on the sides.
