Can someone tell me what core material was used in 1997 Champion 186? I've searched and can't find the answer. Looking at buying a used one, but have had bad experience with Nitro and the plywood core being rotted. Don't want to go through that replacement process again!!

Thanks

Plywood.

What type of transom core are you looking for?

Thanks. I was hoping it has some kind of composite that was water resistant. May still buy the boat, but I'll be sure to check over the transom real good.
