We could tell you but then we would have to bend you over a round barrel and flog you with many small branches! Jason's signature construction does look remarkable, the veneers on the side boxes make some beautiful surfaces and allows him to make a potentially plain surface remarkable.

 

Good luck on your investigation.

I believe he lays up veneers on a form.  I vaguely recall a photo of this somewhere.

Jason is full on one of the most talented dudes I have ever spoke to.  And a heck of a nice guy.

I believe his plans provide instructions on constructing the curved laminated transom.  Most likely it is layers of 3mm marine plywood.  There are pictures from plan builders at the Montana River Boats forum site.  Ask the question there and the stitch and glue folks who built from Jason's plans might see the request for information.
