That is exacly what I am talking about. I knew there had to be a product somewhere. Thank you.

I think this is the right place for this but am not sure. I currently have a rope steering system on my 1448 semi v boat and am wanting to convert it to the rotary style. I know which kit to buy but my question is about where the cable hooks to the motor. I currently have a Evinrude 25 hp...

I hadn't thought of that. When I remount the braces would I bolt them through the wood? jigngrub- You are right it would look awesome and I thought of that till I got a quote on the 1/4" plate. I have big dreams with a small budget.

Here is a visual of what I am thinking.

Here is a picture of the transom from the inside. I am wanting to re-inforce it and weld on it (When I say "I", I mean my Dad :D) From this picture you can see the cracks in the knee braces. My plan is to weld them back. The plan is to install some aluminum angle along the top of the...

Lol, I know. According to the previous owner the boat is rated for 60 hp. It has 3 knee braces on the transom, but things look kind or rough back there right now. I am lucky to have a father who has 30+ years welding and working aluminum, so we will be beefing it back up a little. Thanks...

Sorry, I guess I should have included that but the transom I tore out was 3 layers of 3/4 inch plywood (yes 2-1/4). So I think it will accommodate 1-3/4. I am sure it was not sent from the factory like that.

Thanks for all the help. I just spoke with a local lumber yard and they said they can order 16" wide, 1-3/4 thick lvl for $20... I had another question for MoHops: I still need to coat the beam with marine poly, correct?

Sounds like a corrupt driver. Drivers are what allow electronics to communicate with each other. I recommend going to Dell's site click support and then Drivers and downloads. There you will be able to enter the service tag (located on the back of your tower.) Once entered it will bring you...

Ok thanks for the info. Plywood it is.

I am a complete and total noob when it come to boats, but recently purchased an 14ft aluminum 1952 Sea Nymph, 25hp motor and trailer. The boat is a little rough and the first thing I need to do is replace the transom. instead of using plywood has anyone used or thought about using pvc instead...
