Since you're planning on having it done, go see Hermco in Jensen Beach.
Here's his site: http://www.hermco.net/ Don is also a moderator on this forum and you'll see he is not lacking in SeaCraft transom experience. Bushwacker is running an etec 150 on his 20 Seafari and seems very pleased, so I'm sure he'll chime in at some point...

I'm running a 2010 150 ETEC on my 1970 20SC and while the transom is fine, the engine is mounted on a Porta-Bracket - which I love and hate at the same time. The engine is great. The boat sits a little stern heavy so I have plugs in my scupper drains and pull them - if needed - when I run. Otherwise I get some water coming in when 2 of us are at the stern. That Porta-bracket allows me to idle in some really shallow water, and with my trolling motor on the bow, I have an offshore/flats boat combo of sorts!

Thanks for all of the replies. I think that I will look more into the Hermco brackets. Is there any good way to inspect the stringers without taking out the floor?

Except the keel stringer is wood, and if its like mine there was a filler strip nailed to it, which allowed water in.
