        It broke the motor mount (big heavy motor) and I think broke the jb weld on one side and the motor hit the hatch so hard it broke the hatch. Boat didn’t sink tho. I repaired it. Had I had an epoxy even stronger it would have ripped a hole in the hull and probably would have filled with water and maybe sank. I’d honestly pick repairing a motor mount any day than ripping a hole in the hull. Think about that for a minute. That was a very hard crash. Very hard. Like hitting a brick wall at 100mph. Something is bound to break. I’m extremely surprised it didn’t crack in half.
