reason to repair transom.

[jonesg]

This boat looks ok, but the transom is rotted and lets go on the water.
Engine falls off and hull floods pronto.
From all the toys floating around the hull they were having fun skiing but putting too much stress on the transom.

That sucks.

Glad everyone was OK.

That is why I am on here doing research and doing the restore right.

He says the engine is still good, he fixed the boat.
Almost did the same thing with mine 2 years ago, splashwell was cracking , one more wave jump and it might have split open.
