West Wight Potter 19 Wilmington/Hollywood
Hey everyone, I am new to this forum so I hope I am doing it right I have a 98 West Wight Potter 19 and I recently got the motor(2005 Tohatsu 6hp 4stroke) Tuned up. Unfortunately, I did not take any video while I removed it so I am at a bit of a loss as how to reattach the motor. Anybody have any video of this operation? All help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Looks to me like you are missing part of your motor mount. There should be a section with a wooden or plastic
pad to screw the motor to.

Yes you’re missing the mounting pad for the engine. It looks something like this.
