Finally the day came when I could mount my outboard that had been waiting for me almost 6 months. After 20 months of restoring and rebuilding on late nights and weekends I now had one day left, before we were launching all the boats on the boatyard into the water, to mount my engine.
It took us quite long time to get the bolts into place, and in retro perspective it might have been better to actually put the engine bolts into the jackplate before we bolted the backplate to the bracket. But many times you learn the hard way...
