Beefing Up The Transom On My Bertram Moppie 25

Подробнее о видео

If a little is good, more is better (I think that's how it goes lol)!! I went round and round with so many different options but this is what I landed on. 3 individual knees (in addition to the main stringers) made with 1" Coosa trying my best to hog-tie the transom into submission lol

The only big question is if my logic matches up with the physics and engineering :-) As it stands the transom is 3.5" thick total (89mm) with 1/4" (6.3mm) of that being 1708 Bi-Axial fiberglass on the interior as well as the exterior skins; corners of the transom where it meets the sides of the hull reinforced with an additional 1/4" of 1708 (I forgot to highlight these points in the video :-/)

If anyone can run the numbers please let me know what you think!!

Have a safe Easter and as always Thank You!
