VERY NICE!!! I can't believe she sits so nicely in the water with that big 225 AND the kicker on a bracket!!! I would have thought she'd be sitting really heavy in the back, but it doesn't look that way at all.

Would love to see more pics of her.

ahhh the beauty of the flotaion bracket! Thank you Stainess Marine for making my 225 possible!
believe it or not she sat heavier in the *** with the 140 and the old bracket.
thanks for the good words, I'll keep the pics coming :)

this is the setup I recently replaced, 140 VRO with a 20" shaft on a frame Gil Bracket. served me well but the new setup is just better in all regards. slightly heavier but the power makes up for it and fuel consumption is not as bad as I figured. Still a pig by todays standards but I am a long way from affording an E-tec.
wish I had some water shots of the old setup to compare the freeboard between the two motors and brackets...

Great rebuild!....Boat looks fantastic. Dont know how many more ideas you need from us! With the bracket and enclosure, if you add the arch you pretty much have the trifecta going on in my opinion.

Welcome to the site by the way.
