Re: Transom Help!
Posted by Tailgunner on March 7, 2003 at 13:24:05:
You did not state exactly where your transom is torn, is it ripped completely through to the inside? If you have a transom reinforced with wood and two layers of aluminum, and the outside has pulled the rivets, then it might not be too serious. Iwould look for a sheetmetal fabrication shop. These people usually have at least one person on hand who is an acomplished mig welder who can weld aluminum. I know that this might sound weird but, Is there a custom chopper shop or camper repair near you. these folks work with aluminum on a daily basis and are sure to have someone who can help. I use a guy at a custom motorcycle shop to weld aluminum all the time. Won't hurt to ask.,TG
