Re: To bracket or not to bracket?
I also rebuilt the transom on my 20' SeaCraft, and thought long and hard about closing in the transom and adding a bracket. I decided not to, because I also did not want to fight fish around the motor. Also aftermarket brackets make backing the boat very difficult. I decided to raise the transom to 25" and save myself the $1000. The higher transom definitely should help the problem of taking water in over the stern.
