Knots

Until the mid-19th century vessel speed at sea was measured using a chip log. This consisted of a wooden panel, weighted on one edge to float upright, and thus present substantial resistance to moving with respect to the water around it, attached by line to a reel. The chip log was "cast" over the s...

No. I was not going to save anything. After I posted that I was thinking, maybe the" rebuild a 31 bertram simulator". I think the boys here might like that better. That way you could try all the crazy stuff and see how it works. Like 5 350 outboards, or quad Yanmars.

I think it depends on what you use it for or want it for. If for fishing offshore, a high power unit, I would think thru hull. Just riding around to see the depth, transom is ok. Transom might not be great if your landing big fish, one more thing to catch line on.
