Not sure. I think that looks good on the super snake because of the hood that it has. My hood isnt as mean looking and not sure it would have the same effect.

If your feet get wet it's time to get out. That's all I know about boats.

Part of the transom came off? You didn't say if it was an inboard or outboard but if it is the rear transom you are looking at major repairs. Replacing the wood and fiberglass with enough integrity to hold the outboard (or hold the lower unit if it is an inboard) is not an easy task.
I have some experience with boats...most of it has been bad experiences. I've had 3 of them. 2 inboard/outboards and an outboard.

Oh I gotcha. Thought it was part of the hull.
What engine? They put a Ford 2.3 4 cylinder in them and a Chevy 4.3 v6. The heads are probably the same as a non marine engine. Just the exhaust manifolds are different. I would say it froze over the winter. That's what Usually gets em.

Of course there are several other engines but those are the two most common...v8s both small and big block etc.

All I know about boats is it stands for "Break Out Another Thousand". Good luck with your repair man.
