Last weekend we mounted the rear transom to the working frame. We started by constructing the vertical frame mounts. The vertical frame mounts were built from the bottom up, using 2x4s screwed to the 2x6 frame on the floor, and then screwing the two angle-cut 2x6s to the 2x4s. The angle-cut 2x6s are cut to the same angle as the stringers where they attach to the transom. This is shown in the first picture.
Next, we mounted the rear transom to the angle cut frame piece with screws. When you put the transom on the frame, make sure it's level and that the angle cut mounts are placed an equal distance from the center, and in a place that won't interfere with construction.
