I would carefully sand the paint down to the bare metal. If it is cracked you will see it as a dark lines in the metal. Looking at your photos the other side of the engine has no marks or lines . In my opinion if you had cracks in that area you would see the mirror image on both sides

Had some light snow flurries over here in my little corner of the Kawartha's this morning if that makes you feel any better LOL

We are expecting new pics from you

Still fishing with my Berkley lightning rods and a baitcasting reel that I bought in LB's in 1984 !

The vertical cracks don't look real bad but is that horizontal one a crack or a paint seam. Thats serious if its a crack

And still no pics. No pics, No believe. LOL

One more add on incase anyone ever searches this thread for information. If your trailer manufacturing date is older than 15 years old you are exempt from the RIV program and "canadian tire inspection" They harp on the month of manufacture as well, my trailer had all of this info stamped on it so I was sure to take a photo of the manufacturer plate and this saved me a pile of hassle. Hull is registered with transport canada, Trailer is registered with the province, taxes are paid, insurance is ordered. Time to get rigged for some fishing this weekend!

Ended up going and getting it myself. They let me in with all of the appropriate paper work, certified cheque, double vax receipt, negative covid test etc.

I ran 4 ga from my batteries to the motor. I shortened the wires coming off the motor as short as I could, and use one of these connectors. I haven't had an issue. It works slick. https://www.grainger.ca/en/product/p/WWG3BY23?gclid=CjwKCAjw_L6LBhBbEiwA4c46up-ttYeNJQdzGu34l0LYzU3iKZsK9wqIbb95UbTfPrDKeFqKeyDR8RoCSLAQAvD_BwE&cm_mmc=PPC:+Google+PLA&ef_id=CjwKCAjw_L6LBhBbEiwA4c46up-ttYeNJQdzGu34l0LYzU3iKZsK9wqIbb95UbTfPrDKeFqKeyDR8RoCSLAQAvD_BwE:G:s&s_kwcid=AL!3645!3!483556496832!!!g!545678050530!

Have you taken the prop off to check if you may have picked up some fishing line. A buddy had that problem on his 80 Lb.
