So last year I doscoverd that my whole transom was rotted, so I popped the top off my Grady White and preceeded to replace the transom. Went pretty good and got it done is about 12 hours. While doing this I noticed a soft spot in the deck in front of the bilge opening. I didn;t like how the opening was designed so I figured I would cut it out this year and be done with it. We I started to cut, and cut....and cut. 6 feet later I hit dry wood hahaha. So I ripped it all out and replaced it today all I have to do now it glass it next weekend and she will be ready to rock. I wich I brought my camers but I didn;t think it was going to get this in depth. Word to the wise, there is one tool, that is a MUST have when removing rotted/wet wood when the wood has to be dug out, and that is an electric chainsaw.. IT will make short work of any wood, but basicly bounces off glass.
Next week I will take some pics.
