Yes pretty much. I picked up a used double engine bracket for the extra flotation then got with Stainless marine about the install . They gave me measurements that allowed for some latitude in height. I installed at there lowest for max flotation . In hind site might have raised it 1”-1 1/2 as my motor is raised up as far as I can but works well and don’t think I’d raise it any higher. Interesting the top bolt spread from the two engines was only 1/16-1/8” off the width needed for the single so we slightly elongated them ,welded the other hole and redrilled for the bottom holes.Then had to cut access holes in the two plates in the bracket to reach the bolts— hardest damn aluminum I’ve ever cut ! Would have thought it was stainless steel!
