I've looked at the Hermco bracket.....Mine should have a little more flotation because I'll angle it down at the
point between the inner and middle bottom panels. I think when I calc the flotation it'll be okay. A pair of old 150 evinrudes came off it....they were probably 300lbs each.

With a bracket 28 inches long and 52 inches wide, once it's dep enough to have that size rectangle submerged, you displace 52lbs of water for every inch it sinks.
