Drill all the holes for the brackets, fit the shims or
spacers and then tighten the engine and reverse gear
in position. Make sure that all adjuster bolts for the
vertical position are unscrewed so that the brackets
rest on the shims or spacers. The adjuster bolts are
then removed.
After the boat has been launched, check alignment
once again. The boat should have been in the wa-
ter for some days and should be loaded with all the
tanks full. The hull is always flexible and does not
have the same shape when laid up ashore as when it
is floating in the water.
If subsequent adjustment is necessary, brass shims
can be placed under the brackets.
