Thanks Strick. Yes, with the Honda's i can and will go lots of places. The Mercs while powerful, were definitely not reliable and had me always worrying, what if?

As it drops down to about 10 degrees tonight and I begin my winter hibernation, I started to think about summer and thought I would share some pictures of my newly repowered 1986 27 Tournament taken from the drawbridge during a stopover in Perkins Cove, Ogunquit, Maine.

Strick can you fix the second photo, please?

I was going through my phone today and found more pictures of the bracket job. The first shows a wood template that was created to make sure the bolt pattern lined up with out any interference. The second shows the custom bracket with an extra wide 6 inch flange on the inside of the tub. This allowed the bolts to fall between the stringers while still providing significant displacement with a 48 inch wide tub.
