That’s a high stress area for any bracket. This is the Hermco on Bushwacker’s Seafari. I notice these by maybe S. Carolina pulling her from Florida to New York. Didn’t get any worse so I concluded the cross-country trip didn’t cause them.
As a trailer boat with bracket and outboard, Denny used a transom saver to carry much of the engine weight. I bet the one you’re showing didn’t have that care. At least as far my Hermco bracket I was lucky enough to talk to Don Herman and he wasn’t at all concerned but these, of course he knows his construction.
