[black][size 3]Good report, nice pictures.[/size][/black]
[size 3]Glad that you and the family had a good day on the Gorge.[/size]
[size 3]You know, when I look at the picture of the motor mount, (and I can't see it all that well), but I wonder if, because you have had that happen before, if you haven't developed some pressure on the mount when you installed it, and the movement and vibration of the motor has cracked it.[/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]Have you thought about maybe mounting some rubber under the pads?[/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]Just a thought. I'm sure that you have considered everything that could cause the problem.[/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]One other thought, is it possible that the mounting holes in the boat should be enlarged to remove the possibility of putting pressure on the mount when it's being tightened down?[/size]
