Duffy…. Great looking out. Thank you. The pattern I laid was perfect as it squeezed out into the bracket all over the wrench and out between the bracket and transom. Cleaned it up with some rags and acetone for a pro finish. I’ll give it a few more days. No rush as I have a lot to do still. Thank you!

Very bad ass, indeed!

Challenging for sure but uneventful.
Then again I have had over a decade to think this through and I have spent many a cumulative hour planning for this moment. The bracket is on, bolted and sealed. Definitely a 2 person job as you need someone to assist in the mount as well as hold the wrench inside the bracket. It looks so bad ass!!!!

I used this do dad to get the holes square




Holes drilled




Bracket staged with the bolts through




5200 patterned to smush down but not directly on the bolts just yet. Trying to stay clean as long as possible before this hellish stuff gets everywhere



Great success. I am so excited and relieved. I’m going to give the 5200 2 days to set before I hang the motor

Congrats Koz 

Powerhead on and bolted down.
Final rigging and fuel lines connected. Ethanol free gas mixed with oil. She is ready to test fire in the morning. I’ve decided to run it and see what happens. I’m going to have to commit to running her once a month from now until launch as I do not want to mothball this motor after all the work.
