Guess what happens when you back into something with your motor mounted =
on the transom? =20

Or on the same note, I saw how much damage can happen to the transom of =
a P-15 when it is involved in a 5 MPH accident while on its trailer. =
Story I was told was that someone didn't see the boat when they backed =
out of their parking spot. Had they hit anything other than the motor I =
think the damage would have been much less. What I saw were four, 2" =
diameter holes that the motor bracket made when it pulled out of the =
transom.

O,BTW, It's actually warm outside (in the SF Bay area)!
