Ready for rigging. Been a fun project.

Can you tell us more about the project? You have posted more than 50 images, but no narrative. Perhaps you can edit all the article that contain just images and add some description to them.

My plan is to get the pics up, then I will go through and add the text.

Here a few pics of hanging the motor. I installed a 5" jackplate to facilitate the 20" shaft. I was very intimidated by this part of the project, but it was really much easier than I thought. I borrowed a drilling jig from my rigger, I definitely recommend using the jig. One could easily be fashioned from plywood. The curve of the transom was a little challenging, I loosely bolted the plate to the hull. Then I cut a piece of ply to flatten the pieces out. I worked out to be a 1/4" gap. I found a piece of aluminum bar, which I had to rip in half, worked perfect. The engine crane is a must as well. Even though it was only a 40 HP I couldn't imagine doing it the hard way.
