[QUOTE="Crazyboat, post: 427946, member: 21552"] Didn't read the whole thread but to add my time doing this, When I was a kid I bought a 15 that I wanted to mount on the back of a 12' sears boat, the engine was slightly heavier then the boat itself when empty. With my dads help we beefed up the back using Elmer's wood glue and a bunch of galvanized through bolts. After a few years a noticed a little rust on the wood from the bolts corroding as it was used exclusively in the salt. But nothing you couldn't fix with a few new bolts here and there. We painted the crap out of the wood, must have used several coats of regular house paint and it never wore off. So IMO you can't go wrong using either method. [/QUOTE]
