I noticed a slight reduction in low speed turning responsiveness but I think that is more a consequence of the greatly increased motor height. With the O/B on the transom you have a lot more motor and skeg down deep helping with the turning. The performance gains from a bracket mount far exceed and slight steering response loss to which most would not even notice.
