I have never had to worry about this as my 1st whaler was a 13' and every boat since was always mounted utilizing standard mounting and had a standard transom. I bought this boat 2 1/2 years ago and re-rigged all the wiring and have just been running it. Now that I decided to re-work her completely I figured I would try and get everything a right as I can. I have restored or reworked every boat I have owned this one I just have to find my way around a few things. It should come out nicely. You guys are a great resource keep it coming. Thanks, Wayne

Your 2001 Honda 90 is near 350lbs, is it not too heavy for the transom ? i believe the max is about 250 lbs ? i found something there : http://continuouswave.com/whaler/reference/16-17/repower.html but, nobody wrote anywhere what is the maximum weight on transom for a montauk 17 of 1983? Thanks for any replies regards. Edited by breizh on 02/01/09 - 7:21 AM
