[QUOTE="aeviaanah, post: 226211, member: 6493"] I recently purchased a 12' aluminum boat. I have since ripped out the old rotted transom and replaced. I haven't drilled through the boards yet. The boat has existing holes which I assume mount the motor to the boat as well as the boat to the transom boards. Should I wait to drill these till i get the new motor? Not sure exactly how outboard motors mount. Do they just mount inside the boat with the two threaded swivel bolts? I also plan on making a jack plate in the future...I don't want any necessary holes drilled. [/QUOTE]
