Raising transom to 25"

[Bigshrimpin]

The previous owner of my MA had a transom cap made up from 1/4" welded aluminum plate made up that spans the entire transom notch. The plate raises the original transom 5" to 25". I have a 225 Merc on the back and it's rock solid (just friggin ugly).

My other MA had it's transom raised 5". Here's a shot of their work.
