Here is a shot of the engine and part of the stern. This was taken BEFORE I found out the transom had a bad soft spot a few minutes later the same day. The engine does not run... in the first 2 weeks we owned it I ran every diagnostic I could figure out and determined the CD Unit was bad. It is a part that costs between $300 and $450 Canadian, so we were saving our pennies for it when the transom problem made it a moot point - at least, for a while.
