Default Re: I/O to outboard?

To answer your question, yes.It would be easier to convert the I/O than to close out a notched transom, especially if the transom is solid and all you need to do is glass in the I/O hole.You already have the cap across the whole transom, and don't have to deal with cutting out the splashwell.I'm curious what your reasons for the conversion are? I kinda like the I/O setup, but realize that the motor box takes up room although people use it to sit on, cut bait etc.I know they get a bad rap for saltwater use, butI've had good luck with I/O's, and they have their advantages.Just wondering what your reasons are?
