In the pictures above I prepared the transom for the fiberglass. I used 1708 bi-axle with stitch mat back. I first wetted the surface with epoxy and then skimmed some epoxy with some 404 filler. This would act as my second pair of arms and help me hold the glass up until I had the glass laid in the way I wanted it. To get the glass to lay in the corners smoothly I made cuts called crows feet or crows foot this worked out well. After the glass was in place I finished wetting it out with west system epoxy and smoothed all the wrinkles and worked all the air out with a plastic squeegee. It cured very nice and super strong.
