he forgot his father , the original owner of boat had them , when i asked he went to attic and found them they looked ok. never set them up i was too worried about the gel coat cracking all over hull bottom and transom area. notice his additional paragraph about 16 year old boat and crazing. the other problem with boat was four transom bracket bolts were visibly leaking water into bilge, sometimes running in as boat rocked iwhile docked. there were two dark black mold growth areas below each set of bolts. apparently leaking for a long time. he had never noticed it before i found it ::) i am not experienced enough to determine if the wood behind bracket was water logged. can't see it and hard to get at with bracket. just want to make sure you guys know what i found
