What's the V21 rated for - 200 or 225 ?

I cannot understand why Wellcraft didn't glass over that gap and strengthen the bracket in the first place.

Yeh, I can't quite figure what you're describing. The way the V21 transom well curves around I can't visualize how it all comes together because wood doesn't just wrap around a curve that way !! If it's not well constructed, then they would break off which I haven't heard or read about. Obviously you improved on it. Get the name of the top manufacturing manager of Wellcraft back in the mid 90's and I'll call him or her for discussion specific to how and why .............
