Just picked up my first boat to fish walleye on lake erie. Boat is in pretty good shape for its age but needs the transom replaced. I have found alot of info on the I/O versions but haven't been able to find much on the outboard hulls has anone here tackled one that could share some tips or photos

I will apologize for stupid questions ive worked on just about everything except boats and this is something i would like to do right the first time . I guess more specifically i read somewhere else that its a 3 piece transom vs a single? Also does the entire splash well come out as a single piece or do I need to take out the rivets and remove in pieces.
