Transom question

[CT_V-20]

For those who have a bracket, can you tell me what the inside of your transom looks like? Specifically, is there a hole in the transom from which you can look into the inside of the bracket, or conversely if you pull the inspection plate from your bracket (and it's not foamed in) can you look through your transom? The reason I ask is, my bracket is on (finally) and there is still a hole in the transom, about 5-6" diameter, from the Sea Drive installation. Should this be filled in or is it fine as is? The bracket intallation is watertight and the hole is well above water line. The fiberglass guy can't get to it for "weeks" and the marina doesn't think it's a problem. They're going to screw a plate over it and seal it with some 5200 so it will be water tight, I'm more concerned with structural issues. Thanks.

I'll post pictures tomorrow when I go back down to the boat. I will be able to pick it up Wednesday so I'll be in for Memorial Day.
