[QUOTE="cerevisiaephilus, post: 469803, member: 13421"] I have a 16'x56" flat bottom welded jon (Weldbilt) with a Yamaha 60/40 tiller. Purchased new in 2014. You guys were really helpful when I was looking for the boat and when I had some issues with overheating when the boat was new. I was doing some service on the trailer and noticed a pretty bad torn weld on the brace that holds the transom to the floor. It appears the transom is pulling back and tearing the weld. I've had it out a few times this fall and hadn't noticed this until today. Not sure when it happened. What do you guys think about a repair here? Pretty critical structure in the boat. Maybe the 60/40 is just too big for the transom? Not sure why the photos are rotated, but you can orient yourself to the top edge of the transom.
