After a few quiet weeks we’re back in Andy’s midwest shop where’s he back at work on his Bertram Moppie. Andy is back at the boat transom that he’s wrestling with, and he’s removing more of the core where a previous owner had filled in old inboard/ outboard holes. Because he will be replacing the I/O’s with outboards, the boat transom needs some added strength and he’s digging into doing this repair the right way. Removing as much of the compromised core as possible will ensure a solid boat transom that is plenty strong for years to come. Enjoy!
