what i ment mate is when the boat is in the water is the engine bolt under water? i.e leaking water into the splashwell or boat?

You really need to make sure you get the bolt holes sealed properly with a igh quality marine sealant, a slight weep of water enterring the boat is a nuisance but the unseen threat is the ingress of water into your transom. It will all slowly seperate and rot.!!!!!!!!Sykaflex sealant is a great sealand to use, but there is another one we used to use when I was boat fitting at BHG Marine that was made by 3M. It never let us down in the 5 years I worked there. We used it as an anhesive aswell, fixing in consoles into Ribs, a b*stard to get apart after 24 hours if you had to reposition them if the customer changed their mind of the desired layout.
You can get this at a company called Factor O in Portsmouth, I cant remember the grade but just ask for the stuff that they supply BHG Marine.
 
Hope this helps. PM me if you need any more help, ok
Cheers For Now, Woody ;-)
