I started to remove the transom wood by hammering a long machete down between the fiberglass and wood and working it all loose. When it looked like it was all separated, tried lifting it out with an engine hoist. It wouldn't budge, then cut it in half diagonally and tried again, no luck!
I then backed the boat up while it was still hoisted in the air, twisting the transom and it popped loose. Did the same for the other side and after 6 hours of work I finally had it out!
Then Spent another two days removing all the deck wood and chipping out all the waterlogged foam,cleaning all the remaining wood from transom all debris from the hull.
The Stringers don't look too bad, I might just lay a new piece of marine ply along side them and glass them in.

Now empty Transom




Boat minus decking and most of the foam
