The amount of labor and love in this bracket is tremendus I've never seen a all wood wraped in glass bracket of this sort before but then again I may only have a limited perception on this, a 500# outboard is going to be a true test. Good luck sir.


I'm a little nervous too about the overall strength of the bracket construction, but it sure is beautiful glass work.

make sure to give it a good test before you mount your motor. Maybe you can strap a pair of 55 gallon drums to the bracket and fill them with water . . . then trailer the boat around a school yard or mall parking lot with speed bumps.
I want a picture of that!! LOL
