[QUOTE="oldude, post: 416541, member: 20410"] Maybe i missed this on my searches but how do you line up the existing holes to the new transom. Using the old transom is not possible. I'm thinking about clamping the new transom in place and use the right size drill bit to just mark the wood from the outside of the aluminum. In other words just use the aluminum skin for a template. While most of the rivits/screws won't be a big deal the ones going thru to hold the brace in place have to be spot on. Do I mark the holes, unclamp the new transom and then try to drill straight thru? Thank you for your help [/QUOTE]
