Gimbal housing installed

The following sequence of photos shows the installation of the transom cover plate and gimbal housing.

This photo shows the cover plate installed on the back of the boat and the stern primed for painting.


And after paint


Everything is ready to go




And here it is installed.

Used 3M 5200 to seall everything up. This is awsome stuff. You can litterally glue everything together using this stuff. It comes in a tube and applies like normal painters calk, however, it is actually a single part polyurethane sealant / adhesive. Once it is together its not coming apart. When you look at the plate to hull joint it looks like it has been welded instead of screwed and bonded. Great stuff.
