[QUOTE="huntinfool, post: 104492, member: 1931"] Also you would lose some of the strength of the transom that would need to be made up somehow. If it is raised in just the center then I don't see a problem, however if as stated above you taking 5" off the entire transom, you will lose freeboard and your transom will be weaker. And since it is a 17' boat I'm assuming your wanting to put on something over 40hp and that could cause major problems. More info needed. [/QUOTE]
