Hello everyone this is my first time trying to tottally re-build my
1959 Dorsett! The boat sat out in the weather for 17+ years (yes a
very long time) so you can imagine all of the wood was completely
rotted! I think im sort of handy so i decided to FIX-ER-UP well so far
i tottally gutted it and i have 3 out of 6 new stringers fiberglassed
back in-now my question is i completely chipped the old rotted transom
out and now it is time to replace it-first off what kind of glue
should i use- im cutting new transom out of 3/4 inch treated plywood
but gonna double it up for a solid 1 1/2 inch (the original was only 1
inch) -to glue the new transom to the back fiberglass and i really DO
NOT understand what keeps my 50 HP johnson motor (very heavy) from
rippen the back of the boat off!
ANY-N-ALL HELP APPRECIATED
SKIPP
