Time for a Break

After applying a liberal amount of sealant to the surface of the pod (around each hole and near the outer edges of the pod) I secured the pod to the transom with two bolts. I then applied the sealant to each reinforcing strip and installed the reinforcing strips and all of the eight main mounting bolts. I worked as quickly as possible to get all of the bolts in place and tightened before the sealant became too stiff to adhere properly. With the first pod installed, I was able to rest a bit before starting the same process for the second pod.
