[QUOTE="possom813, post: 205170, member: 5773"] Alright, the deed is done :twisted: I cut the transom down 4 1/2 inches today and made it pretty with a couple of angle cuts and some aluminum angle. I just notched out a 12 inch base and angled it up to 16 inches across to allow free movement of the motor. If I hadn't just rebuilt the transom, I wouldn't have done this, but as it is, I pretty confident in it. Even after the notch, it's a full 14 inches from bottom to the notch and 20 inches on each side of the notch. I'll get some pics of it tomorrow, the only modification that I had to make was to flip my steering rod bracket upside down. I also gained about 3 degrees turning radius both directions with the lowering of the steering rod :mrgreen: [/QUOTE]
