Thinking about getting one, building it as P limited.
Is it necessary for any areas to be reinforced?
Anyone else hate bind nuts for outdrive to mount the transom. Was seeing if anyone drilled holes and used nylon lock nuts instead?
Oops, I thought mentioned the outboard I would be using. I’m going with lawless 3.5 quickdrive. So it be adjustable up and down. Good idea with aluminum backing plate.Depending on what outboard mount you use, you may want to drill & tap an aluminum plate. If the mount you are using moves up and down on the transom this will make it a lot easier to adjust. No need to put a wrench on the inside. I believe Stumpfab has "transom backing plates" available for K&B and OS.
I too am thinking long term. Bind nuts generally don’t have long enough teeth to “bite” into the wood, then they start to tear the wood up where the bind nut is mounted after while.I suspect what you will find.. is you might like the plate as an update at some point. You will end up with less loosening between race seasons.
No wrong way!

i have a 7.5 as well as a 3.5 capt vic mount, high quality and great adjustabilityEric,
Another great option is to go with one of Capt Vic's Hi-Jack mounts. They have tons of adjustment and work great with the Lawless lower. Once it's mounted you never have to move it. I'm using them on my G30's.
