The set-back is the 5" distance off the transom you mention...I'm interested, but even at that price would like to check who made it...if it is homemade, no interest...one thing curious, if he's an outboatd shop, he'll need a bracket like that sooner or later, so why's he sellin it??...
If you want, I'll call him from here for more questions...then if I wanna get it, I'll take you up on buy and ship at my expense...lemme know...


Hey Seacrets...I hear ya on the points you make...well taken...my FIRST plan is to find a mid section and lower unit for my existing motor and forego the bracket...matter of fact I just got off phone w/dealer I got the Honda from...he is optimistic re finding what I'll need to make a 25 outta my 20...so we'll see how that goes...a bracket may have to serve temporarily till I find a long mid & lower...just tryin to cover all the options...how's things in Stienhatch??
