Mike, Armstrong doen't give much info, but this company D&D does. Aluminum type and thicknesses, including installation and measuring transom for proper fit. I think it will give you everything you need to weld one up yourself. They show a base size of 30" offset but says that can be adjusted, you only need 20 to 24" take it from the motor well size. I'm assuming you know the steps of acid etching and painting aluminum since you worked with it.
If you do one for a 19' boat design it for twin engines as I discussed in the other post 19' is pretty small to put a bracket on. 21' is okay but still marginal.

Re: Building the HB20 "Fog Bender"
Thanks Tom... I'll check out D&D. If I build one, it will be for an HB20... not an HM19. My buddy, if/when he gets serious, thinks he wants to put a 50HP (247lb Yamaha I think) on an HB20 and go 25MPH. I don't know... unless the water is glass, my guess is it will not be a comfy ride

Re: Building the HB20 "Fog Bender"
Zignman,
I have looked through your HB20 posts and images. I have to say I am impressed with your build! I sent you an email asking if there was a place you have your build photos posted in a bit larger resolution? I have bad eyes, and I have to blow images up really big to be able to see them. I was hoping that maybe i could find them bigger?
Also, for those who have purchased the plans, are they large prints that are easily read? Thank you for any information you may have.
