[Rhodes22-list] Motor mount cracks

[KenBates]

rob
our severely limited budget combined with a supply of west system and some
10 Oz uni-S glas says repair will be attempted first our lake is shallow and
i have both sailed in to dock and jumped over board and pulled her over to
the dock when things went really wrong! (in lighter wind) but I prefer
having the motor work

How can we get this back to one thread? anyone?
