[QUOTE="fishinnut, post: 312234, member: 8800"] What I did when I replaced my transom was to build a drilling template. I used cutoffs from the 1 1/2 inch transom but you could use scrap 2x4's. Prior to placing transom clamp a 2x4 on the outside over hole/holes. Mark the 2x4 so that it can be placed in the same location once the transom boar is placed. Drill with appropriate size bit from the inside and thru the 2x4. You now have the correct angle for the hole. Just reclamp the 2x4 and start drilling thru 2x4 into transom. Make a template for all the holes. [/QUOTE]
