Default Re: Bracket on a 20 MA questions

Denny (Bushwacker)still love thos pics of your Seafari..lookin to get back into a Seacraft SOON!!!!so we can meet up again..Maddie is with her new owners up in GA..that is another story though!!

Jorge...if you look for a used bracket make sure it is a flotation bracket (dont waste your money on anything else..or you wil be customizing etc to make it float)..might want to give Don a call and ask him questions!!!! Also, like Denny (Bushwacker) said...you can buy an extension kit for a lower unit to convert to 25" shaft(gives you more options) I ran a 135 V6 Merc on my 20" transom...and down the road had Don install hermco bracket and got extension kit off of ebay brand new for $160. Also many 20" shafts are on bass boats and have no corrosion..like my 135..I had plenty of power and top end speed, and the motor was light as heck!!. Regarding rigging..run rigging through top of bracket..gives you more room to walk total bracket without stepping or tripping over holes
Good Luck
