you just don't understand nor listen the hull flex's i don't care how tight they are to the trailer they flex unless you pull it down so tight the hull have become bowed around your trailer rollers or bunks to the point of almost cracking your hull. they do flex we all tie them down to tow. but just listen they flex no matter and the transom saver does not give if it's tied to the trailer but the drain plug will work great and not hurt the hull they make one that ties to the transom eyes as well.

Whoa big fella...



But I do see the value of tying it into the drain hole...

Talking

If Reel, or Blue Runner, or Phat Daddy, or MJ want to flex on a 500 pound tranny(whether they leave the plug in or the plug out) who am I or Mr. Transom Saver to stop them. To each they're own.

Ten foot pole rule... For sure.

I have no motor support. Trim pump just started leaking. I like Chomper's idea best.
