Before with 1/8 inch stainless transon saver and crack.

Please note that the bolt head dead center (top view) was broke off and missing when I got the boat. I heard that long bolt inserts at the top of the transom saver and goes way down and screws into the bottom of the hull. So you might want to check yours. With my new transom saver this shouldn't be much of an issue, but you never know.
