Re: Here I go again!! 1995 Sea Ray 220 Signature Deck and Stringer Restoration
hey jay, I am curious how stuck that top clamp on the inside of the transom "wing" was. It looked like you were giving it a good dose of pb
when you were doing the filliting.
good IDEA with the garbord drian. I think I may do that with mine when I finally save up enough money to get started.
The wings were stuck down really nice. What I was filling was the transition to the hull. There was a big dip right there and I wanted to make it level.
Fellow Sea Rayer: Been following your work on your YOU-TUBE site. Been wondering why no recent update, until I read the posts here about your injury. Hope you are doing well!! You are a true inspiration for all; not only for your work on the boat, but for documenting it as well as you have!! Keep up the great work (& don't forget to tip the cameraman!!). Glad to see your transom is in. Take care.
My cameraman is the best, however he talked through alot of that last video and forgot to aim the camera. I have to edit that out. O Well, his is only 10.
Good Job Jay,
FYI, for Filleting, I like to make my PB just a little thicker. I think it makes it easier but to each his own.
Again Very Nice Job!!!!
I was wondering if I should make it thicker. I have used 1 and a half gallons of cabosil so far.
Good job on the transom, just shows a couple 'small injuries' can't keep a good man down.
J very nicely done. This is a great example for anyone who is about to attempt this job. Norm would be proud The new Texan Boat Shop !
Thanks Fanny!
Awesome job & nice video.... now I want to run out to the garage and rip my transom out....lol No 'boring' parts in that video...can't wait to see the next installment.
You should write a book when you're done.
Transom Installed
I would much rather have a TV show
I hate to type
Jay, you are doing a huge service to the guys who hang out here looking for solid information. Nice job man, keep it up!
I am glad to help out. I was a noob once too, and I decided to make a great journal for anyone looking to do this.

You bet!! I cut out some of the parts you guys would have got a kick out of. My wife and neighbor started giving me crap about something. I just could not leave it in. Gotta keep my street cred.
Well Jay, after watching your thread from January on, i finally needed to say what a hell of job you are doing!! You sure have a lot of patience to take on a project this large! I have a 215 Wellcraft Eclipse, and i cannot imagine having to do this project also. Your youtube videos are great, and must take a lot of extra time to do that, but it helps tremendously to see and here what you are doing. Keep up the work. Ill be watching till this project gets splashed!
Trust me. There are times that I winder what the heck and I doing. Then I look at some pictures, and videos from the lake. I soon get over that.
