Not sure if you are still interested but, I just picked up a 1970 16' Custom and have the same depressions around the motor mount bolts. Since I am going to do some fiberglass repair, I drilled a few holes through the outer hull near the mounts and found the wood to be fine. I did find some wood rot from water near the bottom but it was not related to the mounts much too far down. Just an FYI for anyone else.
