<p>I use 9.9s, haven't had any problems with the wells. Think they are plenty strong, although Neville strengthened his when they went to 20's on their 46. Suggest though that you had delrin or nylon crushpads (I used 1/4 in nylon) in big square under the engine mounts themselves to keep the mounts from crushing the glass and plywood of the well transoms when the engine is mounted. I think I used 5200 to mount the pads and they haven't moved. I also put a lock connecting the two mount handles…</p>
