So would this be correct?
<cfquery name="get_count" datasource="#application.datasource#">
select * from builder where buildtime < '#cleardate#'
</cfquery>
<cfif get_count.RecordCount gt 100>
<cftransaction action="BEGIN">
<cfquery name="get_content" datasource="#application.datasource#">
delete from boatbuilder where buildtime < '#cleardate#'
</cfquery>
</cftransaction>
</cfif>
Can I also put in a loop driven insert inside the transaction?
