Quicker project huh? I do not think it would upset the ride much to install a bracket... I had my transom low for years with three different outboards.. I went from a 200 black max, 250 merc 98 to 03 honda225. Was Always wet and stiil had a silky smooth ride and yes was stern heavy. <RAISING TRANSOM IS WORTH IT>
If you llike to get wet when its rough then keep it low, U just get less wet with it raised.
Love my Platform and Raised transom. Not much difference in ride that I noticed.. Well maybe JUST a little.
Yu gott a Million Options Bud.. have a good week
