Unfamiliar with the composition, but assuming it's got a board or something in there reinforcing. Drill holes. Shoot full of penetrating epoxy. Put motor back on. Call it a decade.
This should work just fine unless you have a 225 hanging off the back or something.

It's a 50 merc and the people who put the motor on there didn't do their due diligence in reinforcing the transom. They even got so cheap as to put a piece of wood under the part where the motor attaches to it, to raise it up I guess. I'll probably have to take it to a metal works shop and depending on the repair cost I may just scrap the boat and get a new one...the motor is in real good shape.
