Transom progress

I have gotten the back layer and the middle layer nicely fitted. The front layer is still presenting a bit of a problem, because the flange I cut away is not smooth, and it's difficult to get the edges smoothed down ot the level of the surrounding fiberglass with the tools I have.

I've located the 'kitty hair' fiberglass impregnated filler that was recommended to me. The only thing I'm missing at this point is the fiberglass roller, which I have been unable to find locally. Since I really shouldn't be spending money on this project right now, progress is kind of limited to what I have already accumulated.

I'd really like to get the transom done and out of the way so I can put the deck back on. That will be a major accomplishment!
