has anyone ever had the transom redone in a 24 or any idea on what cost should be on this? I will pull motor drive and transom assembly, also want to switch to a bravo cut out.
I have a 24' Pantera, and lucky that even though it is a vintage '80, the transom is solid.
There are many threads about replacing the transom on any boat - the procedure is pretty much the same on any boat.
Tear out all the old, laminate a few layers of marine ply with a layer of glass, cut new hole...
Rick (rchevelle) just did it this summer - what more do you need to know?
Thanks for posting the links guys, The most work was getting to the old one, I cut the deck off, but that 'cuz mine was an outboard with a splashwell, and wanted to reconfigure it anyway. On an I/O, you should be able to get to it from under the hatch, but it sure was nice having it wide open to work on.
Thanks found a place locally that has agreed to fix it and wants it as soon as i can get the motor drive and transom assembly out of the boat, now looking for bravo extension box thanks.
Stopped in to check on my boat today. I am really impressed with the work that has been completed. Old transom removed new transom just finished and going to be installed tomorrow morning, should have it back this weekend if all goes well.
