No preparations were made to strengthen the transom prior to installing the bracket and motors. There were some significant stress cracks on both sides of the transom and the fella was in for some work to fix it.

If it were me I would re-do the entire transom or at least add some knees for support. strick
My 23 was converted from inboard to bracketed outboard without knees below deck to firm up the transom. The exact thing that Strick is saying has occurred. The prior owner didn't know to do the right thing. The stern cap has stress cracks on both sides-and this boat has an enclosed transom because it was already set-up that way for the inboard.

Had plenty of gas to spare but i think they will suck the tank inside out @ 5500 in about an hour and a half.
