Correct, that's how it last raced, but have a count up of the holes, and you'll find 4 sets of 4. Now if you look carefully at the pic, you'll see the 3 little holes for the trim hoses, with corresponding holes above and either side of them, you'll also spot that additional holes have been drilled between them, that was for when it was rigged with 4 motors!

Engine beds all glassed in now, ready for flo-coating, but we won't be doing that until we've done a "dry" fit of the motors and drive assemblies.

Hmm, hope so. not that difficult really, just takes loads of time, patience, and a customer who has the budget!

We've done a few transom jobs in the past, but this has been the most challenging.
