Custom building a transom door in a 1979 SeaRay srv300

[Truegrain]

Hello,

I purchased a 1979 SeaRay srv 300 last April with the intent of completely gutting it, rebuilding, and re-powering.
I have designed the interior to look more modern with A traditional teak holly feel. So far this project has come along nicely and hopefully by next year she will be in the big blue. Im not sure how economic this is however I just like the look and strength of the old classic SeaRay hulls.

I am wanting to glass up/carbon fiber a molded swim platform
with a transom door and do not want to do anything that will unbalance or weaken the structural integrity. I'm not trying to slap something together and want to make sure it's done right.

My glass guy thinks it will be no problem however I've been steered wrong before.

I'm sure most of you guys have much more knowledge than me. What are your thoughts, and have you seen this done before to an older SeaRay?

Thanks,
Patrick.

Here is a link to a manufacturer using starboard to over 200 OEM marine manufacturers. http://www.boatoutfitters.com/.

I visited the place and was very impressed with their operations. They can basically build anything using starboard.

Thanks dpmulvey, Yes they do have a lot of options.

I've called several fiberglass shops and I have a much better grasp
on how to do the transom door. I will post pics as the proses starts.

Wow! You are right deenbob1 they can build anything out of starboard. I could probably spend a week in that place, super cool.
