Hi Connie, Wonderful to see we are still benefiting form your input to the list. Regardless of transom strength, new motors are quite spendy these days. Now, if you have a Johnson 6hp dirty 2 stroke built in 1966 (like I once had for my M17) a theft would not be a big loss. But, the sweet little Yamaha 4hp 4st that I now have for my M17 that is green, fuel miserly, and desired, that set me back $1100 years ago would be a slam to the billfold. Thus, take your chances, I'm removing mine. Time to sail in Minnesota, Bones _____________________________________________________________ Recharge and relax.

Bones: Got my Yamaha 4hp 4st padlocked to the boat. Hope that works! --Gary Hyde 2005 M17 sailboat #637 'Hydeaway 2' We can't change the wind, but we can trim our sails. Sailing is like "African Queening" thru life. On May 5, 2008, at 8:25 PM, bownez@juno.com wrote:
