Nice old Whaler Noli. Doing a nice job of fixing it up. Those were the best built boats of all time. Marine ply core and stringers, and \pcs of mahogany imbedded into the glass in attachment areas. Seal any hole you make with 5200 caulk. Trust me on this one.....

Nice work. Are you sticking with the 3 banger? They shake a lot so good mounts......needed.......Back in the 70s I built a 80 hp 4 for one of those whalers was impressed how good it ran.......
