[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 489383, member: 13975"] One option for dealing with misaligned mounting holes is to make a homemade jackplate. With a home made one you can make it attach to the transom using existing holes and then drill and mount on the motor side with whichever hole pattern is necessary. Set back is typically always a good thing and if its a remote motor it doesnt affect operation in any way like it does with a tiller (too much setback can cause issues if tiller length isnt long enough).
