[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 301461, member: 7544"] I may be mistaken but I think you have the metal 180° from the way he intends to mount it. If I understand him correctly, the large flat surface is going to be against the outside of the transom with the lips formed by the 2 bends will be sticking out to the rear so there will be no gap to squish. My only concern with this would be that the motors clamp may slip during turns because of the hardness of the stainless and the clamp can't grip it tight enough. You might want to consider adding some wood to one side of the plate where the motor clamps on. [/QUOTE]
