[QUOTE="thill, post: 493325, member: 4972"] All good advice here. I've done the same transom replacement, and replaced it with wider wood that went further down. Replace the outer wooden pad. It's probably 1/4" plywood. Motors come off transoms particularly during turns, and it happens fast. Yeah, I've had it happen too. Stall mats are way heavier than plywood, BTW. A piece of 3/8" ext. ply with some 16# marine carpet is pretty darn light. As mentioned, a few dots of silicone in the corners will hold it down, but leave it removeable, if desired. But at this point, you have probably already finished the boat and are out hunting already. Drop a couple for us who can't seem to get out there. [/QUOTE]
