I'm ready to cut the hole for the transom assembly to fit an alpha gen 2 outdrive.
I placed the outdrive into the transom assembly on my bench today to get a height. With a straight edge extending down from the cavitation plate, I measure 3-3/4" to the bottom edge of the transom assembly, (not counting trim parts)
Would someone please confirm that's a valid measurement from the "V" of the hull to the lower edge of the assembly?
Thanks
ps, I went to Mercury Marine in Ontario yesterday, tried to get a part # for the template they used to include with every new I/O, apparently they haven't used them for several years. The dealers use a metal jig now, I'm told.
