[QUOTE="airshot, post: 501567, member: 1183"] I would never trust shaking the motor, you need to test the wood itself ! On my Sylvan the transom is enclosed in alluminum so a couple holes were drilled to check, but mine was stored inside its entire life. The only other wood is the decks that are covered with carpet (yech). Hate carpet but mine is still nice. The floor, decks should be easy to tell if they are soft, the transom might need a couple small test holes from the inside. [/QUOTE]
