[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 433721, member: 13599"] if you mean glued to the metal hull - no there are about 8 or 10 5/16" stainless carriage bolts through the transom panel. there is a carry handle on each side of the stern that will have two 1/4" stainless through bolts each as well. there is a stainless top plate that goes across the transom panel. the outside outboard motor plate is the same - 5/16" stainless carriage bolts. there is no need for adhesive between the wood and the metal hull. (IMO: glue could trap moisture - not good). I will apply a very thin bead of clear waterproof (non-silicone) caulk around the edge of the outboard motor plate. [/QUOTE]
