Going to be a nice set up. the 150 is a perfect match for a V.
Please listen to what Todd said about your trailer set up, very dangerous what you got on the front winch set up in the pic.

I'll be reversing the location of the wench to be above the boy eye.

Thank you for catching that. I thought it was this way cause the strap strugles to go through the hole under the roller, but I'll figure it out.

Video no less.. I am jealous. The motor may be a tad low. It has a bit of funny spray on the port side when you plane out. Mine did the same thing, it turned out the bolt that holds the lower unit to the mid section was throwing the spray. Raised it up one hole and it was perfect.

What's funny is I saw weird spray coming out of both sides when starting to plane or at initial plane with no trim adjustment.

I was trying to figure out what it was. May be onto something here.

Ditto on the congrats. Pics and video -- we couldn't ask for much more!

On the PD's maiden voyage we broke down a few hundred yards from the dock. So yes, this was a great one!

Cool. I'm a bit behind getting all my pics into the gallery, but this will promote me to get it done.

Picks of the bracket can also be found at

Set back on mine is 24".

Swapping to a dual axle trailer Saturday and hoping to be back in the water very soon.
