Default Re: How Much Weight is Too Much?  Got New to

I'm confused as usual, isn't the idea behind a transom saver to tie some of the weight of the motor to another source besides your transom. I know bouncing a lot can also be a problem and I see that that rubber piece may dampen some of that like a shock absorber effect. But it still has all the weight on the transom and no transfer of energy to anything other than the transom.
I was considering doing some type of saver for my boat but this would be a lot easier obviously. So am I off base with the concerns ???
