Default Re: New Transom worried about Bracket problems

To do it properly, you'll need to readjust your center of gravity (shifting batteries, fuel tank, etc). I have an Armstrong floatation bracket on my 20. The floatation chamber is nice when the boat is static (helps keep it self bailing) but does nothing when the boat is running. When running is when you'll know whether or not you have too much weight in the rear. The boat will porpoise and that fabled SeaCraft ride is thrown out the window.

I think you’ll absolutely love having a bracket on your boat. Makes the boat bigger, slightly more efficient and is a great swim platform. It has to be done correctly or you’ll regret doing it.
