I have a 1989 24' tracker party barge ....the sticker on the boat states rated for 90 up ........well currently I have a 1989 40hp evinrude on it ...and was given a 1987 120hp evinrude with tilt trim .....will the transom hold the weight of this motor ...I know that the torque and power are just as important ...but I'm not going,g to be jumping out of holes or anything ...just like going nice and easy ...and gradually build speed ...just my way of doing things lol.....but if I make a transom saver type mount for the trailer to help while towing ...I know that will help ....the wood back there is currently a 2x12 ...would I need to brace it up some how ...thanks for the input
