Re: Project Question
Sugarhigh-
Replacing the I/O with an outboard on a bracket is a good plan. You've already got the closed transom, although on a 70's SeaCraft chances are the transom will need a partial or total rebuild, especially if it's going to be holding the weight and forces of an outboard. Seems like the Potter Hermco ( look on the links section on the main page) bracket is the way to go, but pricey. Strick (I think) (do a search) built his own bracket, and did a really nice job. I want to see how that works out for him, that might be the an option....
Spend some time with the search engine on this forum; there's been LOTS of discussion of and experience with these issues here.
Next question- where's the best place to sell the I/O motor and outdrive?
Steve
