My buddy just bought a cobra 201d. Turns out the transom May be bad. Has a little crack just under the 90 degree rail top of the splash well and some brown stains coming out of the tie downs. Also has a couple lines of cracks going side to side in the splash well. During the past few days we’ve been heavily researching Cobras and champions and transom repairs. I know a few have done it with seacast or Arjay. I’m not sure if baking it will help any wet/rotten wood.
Are there any active members still on here that has looked inside the transom or has done one before? Would be nice to get some tips and tricks. Our plan is to trim the top of the splash well like others have done and dig the old wood out.
One of the main questions we were looking at was how the stringers were attached to the transom. If we were to get all the wood out of the transom, will there be wood directly going to the stringer where we wouldn’t be able to get at it?
