Iam going to try and get the transom cut for the TRS to Bravo one converstion this weekend. Is there a site or place I can download or get a cut out template for a Bravo one before Sunday? Or is this something I will need to go to Mercruiser and order?
Thanks
Erik

There is a special Jig Fixture that Merc has which is what we use in our shop. It is pretty slick, the guides in it make it so that your holes are nice, straight & true for the new install. Much better than free-handing the stuff and guessing if your holes are all true. I can order them if you need or want to go that route, but they are a little pricey.. The paper ones I think come with a transom assembly sometimes if you are lucky. If you bought a new transom assembly you may want to look thru any papers that may have come with yours to see if there is one in there.
.. Also I am assuming you already glassed your transom solid already as the B1 transom cut out is smaller than the TRS..
