⛵️ DIY Sailboat ROTTEN Transom Fix | ANTIDOTE's soggy backside get's a facelift!

Описание: We continue our challenging project boat journey on Antidote, a 1989 Liberty 458. We're getting right to work on the wet transom core, tackling some serious wood rot and performing crucial moisture testing with a moisture meter, which showed a 25% reading or higher across the board. This DIY boat restoration is proving to be quite the sailboat refit, with plenty of destruction and repairs underway inside the boat.
