Title: Outboard Transom Bracket
Post by: Rick James on August 14, 2013, 06:52:11 AM
What length bolts will I need to install an O/B bracket on my Picnic Cat transom?
Or, how thick is the fibreglass at the transom?

Later...

Figure out where you want the O/B bracket and drill a pilot hole.
Check for depth. Allow for glass/hard point, mount thickness, and washer and nut.
And a tad more for thread starting. If your adding a backing plate allow for this.

skip.

Thank you, Skip.
I was planning on getting the fasteners before I started drilling, but your suggestion is golden.
