Good advice Don. But I think I might consider 4200 just in case you get pissed off at yourself again in the future and need to remove that bolt without getting a hernia

You are right Capt., good point, however I see he is now moving on to using epoxy. That's really going to make it tough to remove the bolt without a hernia!! I'm happy he did not use epoxy to set the #10 X 1" screws on his original trim tab installation!!!

If you used Coosa for the transom, do not even worry about it..
You can drill all the holes you want or not !

No wood, No rot..

Just say Ooops !!
Oh Chit !

Move on

Hey NoBones. Would you say it is a waste to overdrill mounting holes in a Coosa transom? Maybe just drill and brush a little epoxy on? I plan on overdrill and fill anywhere I go into or through Divinycell. Anywhere you are backing something through Coosa/Airex it is a waste yes?
