Yep, that?s correct, and if you do end up just under there?s a product called coremat, it?ll build about 0.050? per layer

"The range for the transom is 2" to 2.25" according to the Mercruiser manual.Apr 5, 2021"

I'd follow MerCruisers specs.

General Discussion / Transom thickness?

« Last post by nes-cv23 on May 06, 2024, 05:43:19 PM »

I?m getting conflicting info on how thick the transoms should be?. Some say 2?.  Some 1 3/4?  some at 2 1/4? .     I believe outboards have a different size than inboards?.  What are all you guys thinking?? I?ve got the new transom in in my 23.. it?s at 2? for the mercruiser I?m using.  When I measured the old it was 2? ?.  But that was very rotten.      GO!

Rare classic fiberglass boat. Floor needs repair in places but otherwise solid. 
Have a few of the original chrome pieces to go with it. 
Too many projects to give it the attention it deserves.
