[QUOTE="Skidz, post: 202492, member: 3920"] I "think" you could do it. As it is shown in the picture, you could mount the long side to the transom, and the short side to the motor mount. Some questions first though. Is your motor a tiller or remote? Either way can present complications. Does it bolt permanently, or do you have the large mounting lugs that you turn by hand (can't think of the right term at the moment.) If the latter, make sure they can clear as well. Finally, will the motor be able to tilt when mounted to the lowered plate? If you can work around these issues, then it would seem doable. But notching your transom might become the more viable option. [/QUOTE]
