DON'T LISTEN TO THE BAD ADVISE OF SALE YOUR BOAT. REMEMBER A HUMAN BEING BUILT YOUR BOAT AND A HUMAN BEING CAN FIX IT. IN MOST CASES EVEN BETTER THAN FACTORY. BY FIBERGLASSING DECK TO TOP OF TRANSOM YOU ARE MAKING THAT AREA ONE SOLID PART (STOUT). NOT SURE HOW DRIVING DOWN A ROUGH ROAD OR POWERLOAD CAME INTO THIS STORY. PLEASE GUYS PURCHASE A TRADITIONAL TRANSOM SAVER AND SAVE YOURSELVES A LOT OF TROUBLES.ALMOST ALL THE BOAT MFG. I TALK TO ARE AGREEING WITH THE ISSUE IS WITH MOTOR TOTERS.

Guess you didnt read the part where THEY, the repair shop, told him not to do those things. The only bad advice on this thread is telling him to keep that ticking time bomb.

If you read the whole thread you would have seen where the OP got his transom repaired weeks ago. EDIT: Just noticed its your 1st post. Welcome aboard.

ALMOST ALL THE BOAT MFG. I TALK TO ARE AGREEING WITH THE ISSUE IS WITH MOTOR TOTERS. What did you expect them to say? The issue with most transoms comes from striking underwater objects with the lower unit of the motor. Once weakened, it will continue to degrade with force and vibration.

If he sells this boat without full disclosure about the transom problems is WRONG.Passing the problem on to someone else is not ethical in my opinion.
