Re: Transom mod. Have you ever done it?
Thanks for the link. It works perfectly. And I will just say again thank you to everyone for the advice. I will also say that the motor has tilt and trim, the cav plate sits about 3/4 inch above the lowest point of the transom, its propped with stainless 3 blade 12 3/4 dia. 21 pitch, no jack plate, compression between 108 and 115 on all 4 running at about 43 mph GPS at 5500 rpm at 4750 ft elevation. As far as wet foam. A definate possibility. I need to get that figured out for sure. If there are any upgrades that can be done to that particular motor without damaging it, that would be great to hear some input on. I am new to outboards but I know my way around a motor, tool box and manual. Unfortunatly, I don't know my way around a yacht club if you know what I mean. This boat is in pretty darn good shape on the outside for its age so I am hoping that I find it dry inside when I dig into it this winter. Once again thanks for all of the advice and the welcome!
