Default Re: To bracket or not to bracket?

Fellowship,
Your dead on right about the 20'.
These boats where pretty much "hooked up" when they were built. I'm still on the fence with my 23' with regards to adding bracket. I am getting almost 2mpg at 27mph with an older merc efi. Boat handles great.

I have a 73 20ft SC. with a 200 Merc mounted on a bracket. Boat does need trim tabs. But she runs like a champ. I wouldn't even think twice about not adding a bracket. To solve the fishing with a bracket just "keep it in gear".

"Tight Lines".

My opinion on a 23, bracket. a 20 I'd leave it like Marks no bracket.But again thats personal preference.That DnD looks very similar to Stainless Marine.RS.
