The difference is that Seacast® is based on the same
material as the rest of the boat a the hull. Seacast®
has a certain amount of resiliency, which keeps it from
cracking. In seventeen years we have never had a cracked
or broken transom. Even with the enormous Hp hung on some
transoms.
-
In contrast to foam, Seacast® is not friable - so
the bond is superior. Seacast® has been tested by
a dropping 20 lb weight, from a height of 10 ft, on a
6" wide 1.5” thick piece of transom - did not
break after 200 repeats. In comparison, a standard plywood
transom is destroyed after one drop and all other materials
tested failed after the third drop.
-
As to the question of bonding to wood. Yes, it bonds very
well, BUT you must remember the wood itself will be the
“weak link”.
