The bow transom is made up of two layers of 6 ply, with the inner layer covering only part of its area.

The outer layer is complete. The inner layer is just the projection above the bow seat/tank and is slightly wider than the outer layer.

The transom is built with square top edges to both layers - it is chamfered to a horizontal edge during finishing of the hull.

The layers are assembled by aligning the top edges of the parts and the centreline. 'Glue' the parts with an epoxy/microfibres mix and pin together while the 'glue' sets.

Add the seat bearer as shown.

NOTE - Don't bother chamfering the edges of the assembled transom - the 'glue' used when assembling the hull will fill in these steps. The seat bearer has a taper (ie, the back edge is wider than the front edge that is fixed to the transom) - this may not be really necessary, but it looks good!
