Default Re: Bracket Project

Old Volvo motor came out ("back home texas" style) on the back entrance to strick's seacraft racho . . . The outdrive and the motor were a mess. Block sanded the bracket again and used some of stricks quick fair to fill the low spots. In the last pic you can see where those molded pieces went . . . they really stiffened up the swim platform nicely. I butted them up against the tub for better support and there's no flex at all on the platform.

Just priming again and painting and the bracket is DONE!! It's no Hermco/potter bracket, but it'll do. One thing I should have done was to make the edges sharp on the bottom riding surface, but that'll have to happen on the next one.
