I would recommend pulling it off and finding a regular bracket. On my proline, it was easy to cut the transom down and make a regular transom out of it, it had a filler panel that was held in place with two screws and some silicone, after I pulled it out, I cut the transom down and reglassed over the fresh wood. The liner for the boat was the same liner used for either set up. If your boat has a nice molded liner dedicated for use on teh seadrive, I'd keep looking for a bracket. I've seen nice ones on line for $500

I like my full transom is in good condition I will get a bracket because I don't like the cea drive bracket at all and I also was going to buy a swim platform with the bracket but I stop for a bit the reason why I stop is because I was rushing in to it with out know what's going on now I know there is difrent brackets out there
