TarponRod Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 I just noticed this crack on my 98 16’ Bayfisher. Does anyone know what the core material of this year transom? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

croakersmoker Posted August 9, 2022 Report Share Posted August 9, 2022 It is all glass in my 97 bayfisher 16. I bought my boat with a crappy patch over the same area on both sides of the engine. I had my fiberglass guy remove and put a new patch that spanned both areas, and under the motor. I never saw the condition without a patch, but would expect something similar. We determined that the structural integrity of the transom was fine and this crack was from trailering the boat without a transom saver. I bought a transom saver after my repair and never looked back. Literally! I just hung a 70lb heavier motor on the boat and will respond here if the cracks surface through the patch. Hope this helps!
