I see your point. From looking at others in the 20' section, I would say as a guess that transoms changed later in 1973? I think only Mike D transom style can take dual motors, I doubt that my opening could take dual motors?
As for the port stern deck box hinge, that pocket was probably for added clearance for the solid rotory cable steering system versus the older mounted cable/pully system mounted in the splashwell.
As for my stern boxes, i have mounted the trim tab hydraulic pump and SS racor filter in the port box and use the star box as my emergency anchor locker.
I cut a Bomar hatch in the middle of the splashwell, made a shelf on top of the main middle stringers and mounted the 2 batteries inside with a dual battery switch.
