Rick,

I'm in a similar position in that my boat has numerous flaws that need to be rectified and fixed. I did a lot of searching on fiberglass and boat repair and it seems that Don Casey is the man to talk too. The books I've ordered up are

http://www.amazon.com/Sailboat-Refinishing-International-Marine-Library/dp/0071486585/ref=pd_bbs_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1213467891&sr=8-5

and

http://www.amazon.com/Sailboat-Repair-International-Marine-Library/dp/0070133697/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1213467891&sr=8-2

They have pretty in depth coverage of the exact issues you're describing, and detailed instructions on how to fix them. I'll be starting in on some transom work soon myself...

Later
