bracket suggestions

[oldbluesplayer]

Padre - funny, I've been having the same thoughts... don't like that 20" transom cutout... brackets.. flotation vs weight, set back stress...

I've been thinking along the lines of a wider deal, almost like grafting a euro-transom onto the back... maybe convert this thing into the first 21 - 22ft Seafari... don't know if flush to the hull wetted surface, or a step like in the Edgewater - that's an interesting thought, too... more research on brackets, hull shape, and performance characteristics - that shape, I think, would be easier to do, add a tremendous amount of flotation, could easily be super strong...

winter....... ugh
