[QUOTE="DarkstarCrashes, post: 140080, member: 3225"] I'm interested to see how it turns out. I have no idea why you would want that much power on a 12 but to each his own. I'm sure there is a way to lay it out weight-wise that would make it less likely to end in flaming death. If you are trying to beef up the transom, I would recommend actually glassing it in rather than just coating it with polyester resin. You can get cloth and mat from just about any auto store. For my transom on my little fiberglass boat, I used mat over wood. and 5200's it to the back and sides. The boat will break in half before it goes anywhere. [/QUOTE]
