[QUOTE="Canyonfish, post: 5576923, member: 21473"] Another thought, transoms used to be fiberglass over wood, now only fiberglass. They don’t rot, but wondering now if they are as strong? Plus motor sizes have steadily grown from 150’s to 250’s making them heavier. Never seen this either. Heard of a few instances when fishing shallow Florida lakes, where someone would hit a gator, maybe manatee they would guess running wide open, and would destroy the lower unit or stress the transom. FLTENNHUNTER1 Thanks for finding this and sharing for our safety considerations! 👍 [/QUOTE]
