How much was chopped from the stern of your boat?

Somewhere between 8" and a foot, can't remember exactly.

How was the stern sealed? With fibreglass sheet?

No, the C-Trim mount is a plastic plate (with mouldings to take the pins
the rudder pivots on) which is screwed into place (I assume into the
original hull fibre), and then the whole thing was sealed originally
with resin though after the original started leaking a few years down
the line I re-did it with high grade silicone sealant (Sikaflex, not
cheap but very good)

Thanks again.

I'll continue with some more research before I get the saw out!
