What would be a good bracket/motor combination to keep an eye out for?
One thing we've talked about here when converting to bracket/outboard is be sure to use a 25" shaft motor as a short-shaft has a tendency to flood the motor when trottling back to a stop...

Another consideration is motor weight and these days the E-Tech has 'em all beat in the power-to-weight ratio department...an Armstrong aluminum flotation bracket and an E-Tec 175-200 would be my choice
