No that bolt is NOT attached to air
We thought that the major forces of the brace arms should be transfered to the transom, so we dug through the scrap wood pile looking for a suitable block to use under the hull and against the transom. We had left a gap at the top between the transom and the underside of the deck that we needed to bridge. We settled on an OLD treated 4 x4 that we ripped in half on the bandsaw, that left us with 2 blocks 1 3/4 by 3 1/2 that are glued and screwed to the transom and also to the deck.

There is a 10 inch 3/8 carriage bolt that runs up at an angle and comes out the top of the deck for the braces to attach to. We hold the bolt in place with a fender washer and locking nut.

When the pylon in installed it drops down on top of this bolt against the locking nut and held in place with a wing nut
