The white tape is for holding the fuse in there for the test, I had to make the wire harness longer and for got to disconnect the battery before cutting the wire *:o

I did not have a short 20 amp fuse so I used a long for now.

I did not have a power tilt switch on the control so for the moment I ran the wire and made my own remote switch I can use from inside and out side *;D *Will get 2 new switches in the spring, for dash and motor

i think it looks great on ya boat! congrats MJ...you deserve a full day of catching fish now! go get em!

Re: Maco's New motor +
 

You deserve some good luck MJ. I'd part out the Yamaha. You should get $200 for the cowling alone. Then there's prop, lower unit, carbs etc.

Re: Maco's New motor +
 

Good luck MacoJoe

Install looks great.

What was wrong with the yamaha that you had installed before.

Re: Maco's New motor +
 

MJ congrate on the new install and best wishes. Keep us posted with all those fish you catch.

HAVE FUNN.

I can't male out name on bracket? Doing research for mine?

Re: Maco's New motor +
 

Trying to save MJ a few key strokes cause he's a busy man...His replacement Yam came apart on the maiden voyage, no need to rehash that one...The Bracket is a Stainless Marine Gil Bracket I'm pretty sure.
