[QUOTE="hc803, post: 432937, member: 10139"] As to the motor: I have a 1236 Monark (also in Columbia, I'll wave if I see you out) with an 8hp Johnson on the back. My boat is also rated for a 5hp motor. There is no difference in weight between the 6hp and 8hp model of my motor, so I don't worry about my transom. Any additional support would help in a general sense but I'm not sure the weight of your motor is enough to warrant a modification. I've not been hassled by DNR (yet) and I'm not aware of any SC law on overpowering a boat. Generally that has to do with insurance and liability (civil) issues. [/QUOTE]
