Finally finished this boat as a gift for my dad. Thanks to "hermit" for the boat. Motor is another franken' merc vertical reed 2.4L with a 30" shaft and a 2:1 ratio lower. Bracket was designed (it's a little square and boxy) but built to keep the motor way up out of the water. I had to keep the platform narrow (60") to allow for tabs and kicker bracket aswell as fit the bends in the transom face.

launched saturday in 20knt sw winds and slugged through buzzards bay wind against tide chop at 25mph.
