I own an old Grady (1979) 21' with an old tired OMC Stringer I/O. The rest of the boat looks great, hull and floor are solid. I'm considering converting to OB using a OB bracket along with some stringer and transom reinforcements. I can do all the work myself, so labor is free and my buddy has a nice 175HP he'll let go cheap. I spoke to Grady who says it can be done, but offered no advice. I also spoke to the bracket manufacture, who claims that it works great, but I wouldn't expect them to say otherwise. Has any one done this? How did it turn out? How did the boat handle afterword? If so, can you post some pics?
Thanks!
