I've thought about puttin a ''L'' bracket to mount an outboard on my rig. How do I know if the hull is right for that and if it's strong enough?

...I don't know that much about boats...I've been around quite a few..but only bought my first one last season...and am still working the kinks out of it....
....BUT!!....I have many friends with boats and they've done what your looking to do. What they did was contact the manufacturer of the boat for the specs. on the possible weight limits of the outdrive and the actual best place to mount it.
...My friend had a marina mount his. 3 weeks later, it CRACKED!!!...thats when called up the manufacturer (Customer Service) and they told him how large he could go, and the best place to mount it. He ended up doing it himself, and hasn't had any problems since.
If you have any questions you'd like me to ask him.......start typing!!  |

The boat I have is a 1971 in pretty good shape. I don't even know where to start lookin for the spec's . Plus, it being an older boat I'ld want to make sure I'm doin the right thing. Or this could lead to my divorce

My parents have most of there family here, and in canada, I think that played a big roll. They visted Bermuda last year.Still plenty there (greenys) and the cost of living is way high.Labor's work 7 days a week and long hours. My dad's good freind owns one of the few landscapin bussiness's there,he knows the island well.

Being a 71, it "should" be a strong boat!!....Hullwise.
...and your right, also being a 71 will make it harder to get advice from the manufacturer.
...what would I do?.....
I start a post here, asking for suggestions, give details about hull, size, construction....and of course the specs. on the outdrive you wish to mount..... 
.....I'd put it on this thread, as well as start another thread. I'd also put it on the other site......in as many places as possible, for example, the Main, the Mass., the Tavern, the Boating.....etc....
......people seem to be very helpful on these sites....
...sorry I couldn't help you more... |
