[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 457508, member: 15636"] All motors will have a harmonic range that can build up vibrations. I would have though Tohatsu would designed them to occur in a range above typical idle/trolling speeds and lower than planing speeds. You could try adding rubber sheet over the transom anywhere where the motor contacts it. I used CarbonCore for my transom rebuild, but the area to filled must be made nearly water-tight, or it would leak out. You may not need as much structural, so a std wood transom could be easy. Otherwise Seacast is a less expensive ‘pourable’ transom filler. [/QUOTE]
