Looking to repower a 1972 Aqua 19'6. It has the original 20" transom which is solid. My 75hp is right around 300lbs I think... I want to repower with a 150-175 Merc 2 stroke 20" shaft.

What is the max weight this transom can hold? Anyone with experience please let me know what happened when you repowered on a 20" transom.

Repowering due to a mini tower being installed.
