Would someone be able to answer if the bolt holes (outboard to transom) are the same dimensions for a 1983 evinrude 75hp, to a 2020 evinrude 115hp G -2, can’t find much on the G-2 spec. Install happening next week, rather know now before I have the motor incase I need to prep the transom. Thanks.

The 75 HP was about 240 LBS----The 115 G-2 is 390 LBS.------Make sure the transom is STRONG !!

Thanks, it’s strong. I hope! Brand new marine ply,2 coats of waterproof epoxy/ 5200 sealant sealed between the 2 3/4 sheets, made the whole transom wood one piece (old was 3 different pieces) beefed up lower motor mounts with 1/4” aluminum plate on top of the wood, tied to the 6 centre 1/4” bolts. It’s going on a 1985 Starcraft 18HL, builders plate says 140hp max.
