Hey kajun, V-20 in PC

Yeah if the transom is strong and rated for the HP you are applying why would you need to beef it up with a plate? I totally understand if adding a bracket why you need to do stuff to the inside but those plates on the outside are a sure sign of problems. I ran my first boat 5 years with a half rotted transom and stainless plate heavy metal repair with a 70 hp. ;D
