Duane, I'd do it pretty much like Bill-1/16 birch ply filling the rear center floor glued with slow epoxy(I like West Systems). On the transom I'd add .030" carbon fibre inside and outside. Dumas used the soft Luan mahogany ply on the transom too and the bolts/nuts would compress this wood easily. Nuts/bolts would loosen up when the boat was run hard and then the holes for the rudder mount would get enlarged/elongated. Also put a carbon fibre doubler where the skid fin mounts for the same reason. Good luck,Glenn
