I am looking at a Trophy 2052 that is for sale. The owner hit something and had to replace the transom shield,{it cracked} propeller, boot and shift cable. the engine ,{4.3merc}was removed to install the new shield.He had a very large repair bill for this repair. The fiberglass shows no sign of damage. should I be concerned about such a hard hit to the outdrive. the boat has about 100hrs and is excellent otherwise. thanks Jeff

If it was done right no problem. That is the weak spots, the pivot points.
