Thanks for the welcome,He told me he would let me know if the transom wasn't any good when we started the whole job.At the time I had trusted him with all my boat repairs, and since then I have met many people who have not had good things to say about him.
The bracket job was my last dealing with him besides small purchases like oil and stuff.He yanked my chain forever just to get the job done. By the time I got it I was calling him like every week or so, So I don't know if he just slapped it on and sent me on my way.It took almost 8 mos to get it done, so I don't think I was asking too much.
I'm going to probe around the transom from the inside.It really is one thick slab back there so I'll check it in a few spots.
After many years of looking around the web for info on steplifts I never found as much as I have here in just one day.This is really a great site.
