Recently I was troubleshooting my shiver-happy fuel gauge and noticed that
the top bolt of one of the motor mounts was completely loose. See attached
pic. the starboard side one was finger-loose too, haven't checked the aft
bolts yet.

Link to a photo is below. In case the attachment doesn't work.

How tight should these be? I figured they should be somewhat more than
finger tight since the top bolt secures it to the rubber motor mount shock
absorber, the bottom part of the motor mount appears to be quite secure.

I paged through the manual but didn't find anything. Does anyone have
advice?

Thanks!

Happy Sailing,
