The "plugs" are dowl rods i soaked in resin and plugged the holes i made when i used threaded rod to pull the new transom to the existing skin.

Default Something i have been pondering
I was thinking about getting a porta bracket but in reality i am not gonna be able to afford it. I have a bracket that was on the boat before i redid the transom but the way it was set up was for a 20" motor and had a manual jackplate to run a 25" motor. I would like to do away with the manual jackplate. So can i just move the bracket up to use it as a 25" motor? or will that create too much of a moment on the transom? I know there is a calculation for how high to mount it based on the set back but i am just lookin to see if i can use it as a 25" bracket for now. If not would someone like to trade?? haha
