  • After making a transom replacement video using a liquid resin, I had lots of requests to make a follow up video. After a full season of use, I will show you how its holding up along with answering a few questions about it. If you haven't seen the first video, you can see it here: • The Easiest Way To Rep...

    I've been waiting for your follow up video...awesome....I had faith in what you did from the start...my boat is practically identical to yours on the back end (92 Spectrum Blue Fin) all the way to the 1992 90hp evinrude..I'm still waiting for my Carboncore to ship. Unfortunately my transom was completely rotted, so for the higher ends I will be making glued, treated plywood extensions to house those areas since I only purchased 2 pails vs the 2.4 suggested. I also intend to possibly go with a jack plate. Not sure if that would cause more or less stress to the transom but I've got plenty of faith in the Carboncore due to yours and other videos. Once again great video, and great job.

    I just want to say… you’re basically the only DIYer/CZcamsr that shows the attempts, fails, successes and openly pondering solutions to inevitable obstacles during your projects. You didn’t stop there, you’re going over these rude comments and doubters. I just applaud your realness and honesty. Love it.

    As a fellow youtuber who is constantly reminded how dumb I am this was a great video and appreciate you putting your work out there. Taught us a lot.

    God Bless you Brother! People criticize because of their own inequities! They have nothing invested in the boat but want full authority and control over it. You did a good job that is sound and will last as long as any other possible repair. Hang in there don’t take it personally! 😌❤️🖖🏼🇺🇸

    With the exception of needing a little more resin to completely fill the void, you did a very good job repairing your boat. That resin will never rot and is in my opinion much stronger that the plywood that is used in the industry today. Some of those negative comments are from idiots that know absolutely nothing about boat hull repairs. Liquid transom repairs have been done by boat repair shops from medium to larger boats and yachts all over the western and eastern seaboards for years and this repair method was mostly kept as a secret through much of the industry and could only be purchased through wholesale vendors and was not available to the general public until recently. You will more than likely have some other issue with your boat before ever having to worry about your transom again. "Good Job Sir!"

    The fact that you have used the boat for a full season is a testament to your work and the quality of the materials used. Nothing is perfect when working on old boats. It's easy to be an armchair critic but in the end, you're on the water and fishing thanks to your work. Great job! I would let the folks at Carboncore provide you with their comments on your video and a materials analysis for their product. I would bet it fully validates why your repair was a success.

    Epoxy is an amazing technology, so versatile and durable. I’m taking note of these products for future projects, marine ply is great but this is next level. Great job

    Hearing the negativity at the beginning of this video reminds me of my favorite quote from Mark Twain - "The more I learn about people, the more I like my dog." Keep up the good work.

    You don’t need to do that expensive video my Man! To Me looks like you did an amazing job, I know there’s a lot of experts out there, what I think about them is that the only thing they can do is hate because the wife don’t let them go fishing, don’t let them do anything, don’t let them spend money on nothing but things she likes. LOL!

    I did the transom on my 1995 Lund with carbon core. Rock solid. Best and easiest solution to a big problem. I’ve done a pretty good amount of marine repair, and you did just fine. You’ve got nothing to worry about.

    Thanks for doing this follow up video! I'm like yourself a diy fisherman and probably would've done this just like you to save money and think it's actually stronger than original, compared to plywood as you said. Well done. My opinion is don't do the expensive video to please the naysayers, enjoy your time fishing!

  • @KP-oe8sk

    Well the Hater's will be Hater's!!? Your work on this boat was exceptional! You used a Transom product that is better than any plywood etc!! Your Aluminium work was great!! This product appears to be the way to go!! well done!!

    for doing a DYI you did great - congratulations on having the desire to fix your boat yourself - most boaters don't have a clue of what it goes into doing repairs or maintenance -

  • @user-gd1wl8yd5j

    I think you did a excellent job. You don't have to worry about that transom rotting out.

    I finally found this follow up on your transom repair. I subscribed because you did this follow up. Most transom repairs don't do a follow up on how well the repair held up.

  • @wahoo3279

    Great lesson for the DIY transom. I would definitely follow what you've done to your boat. Just subscribed cause I admire people who are not afraid to try new ways and save time and money. 👍👍

    To the haters... They may criticize you for the way you did the job.. but, whose to say pros don't do that.. you think the pros tell you how they fix this kinda stuff.... No!! They'd probably lose a lot of business over it..

  • @jasongetman12

    Definitely do the transom torture test. One with a plywood transom and one with a liquid transom and see which one takes more lb/ft of force to break.
