Thanks. As for the motor she'll borrow my big tins 8hp kicker until I find something that suits her better.  From what I’ve gathered this boat/transom should be able to support a 15hp (no plate telling me otherwise) with no problem. I’ll be redoing the transom with 2 pieces of ½” marine ply laminated together and then stiffen it up with a horizontal brace and side/transom cap ties.  I’d love to do a 25jet so I don’t have to worry when I hit the rivers, but with a baby due in May I don’t want to separate myself with that kind of money. So she’ll sport the 8hp tiller until I can get my hands on remote 15 – 25ish.
