Re: transom mod to longshaft
It ain't pretty but if properly sealed it will do the job 
A nice coat of flow coat to finish will make the job a good un!

Re: transom mod to longshaft
yep - it's being resined
and the boat is old and tatty anyway, so no issue. I only wreck things, not much point in me paying a fortune for a smart little rib.

Re: transom mod to longshaft
Almost done. Just needs removing next Saturday after I got some new marine sealant, and the bolt holes sealing, and ready to go in the water Sunday.
I just hope the top bolts are not too low compared to the top of the false transom. May need to brace it inside from top of transom to the main bolts, just for an additional bit of support, but I think (hope) it should be OK as is.
