[QUOTE="Crazyboat, post: 513783, member: 21552"] It's set that way to accommodate a short shaft outboard. If you go straight across your outboard will sit too high and you'll have performance issues galore. At least that's how I see it. If going straight across is easier, do so but cut out a notch where the engine will sit. From what I see, the aluminum looks in good shape, if just replacing the wood, use the old as a template. Or do you plan on removing and replacing the entire transom? [/QUOTE]
