Thanks guys. Like I said, the title just says Hurricane. Then again, I used to have a Robalo that was titled as a C-Hawk! I think the boxes were for standing behind. Weather/spray protection? Can't help with visibility. They'll be the first thing to go. Unfortunately he wants $400 for the bracket which is more than fair but I have no $$$! He is giving me a stainless bracket that might be homemade but looks like it will be fine. I'll post pics when I get it and get some opinions. Also I have a 140 Johnson for it but it's a 20" and I'm not sure what the other bracket is set up for. I'll probably need to get a 5" riser. Finally a hole of my own to pour (or should I say poor ;) ) money into!

Welcome!

Bracket on boat is all you need!! Stainless Marine is really made of Alum and can take a 250 hp motor.

I hope irs set up for a 25" motor cause a 20 is going to be under water all thew time!

Good Luck!!

Unfortunately he's not giving me the one in the picture. Instead, its an open cage type thing welded up out of stainless plate. It doesn't look too bad but I'd certainly rather have what's on there. I see a couple of you are from cape cod. I'm actually picking the boat up in Duxbury. Do any of you locals know anyone with a 5" extension for an OMC 140? I'll find out tomorrow what year it is. Also I need a trailer to get it home on. Mine is a single axle for an 18' boat and is only rated for 1200 lbs. Any help would be appreciated.
