Engine Brackets, Pros and Cons

[NAHIM]

Jorge,


I have a 73 20ft with a 200hp Merc mounted on a Bracket. With two adults standing in the transom two inches of water comes in. I figure that the bracket makes no diffrence in getting wet feet. But in chop with trim tabs of course I can keep up with the big boys when going offshore. If you want to see the boat I have it a couple of miles from UM.

Tight Lines,

R.NAHIM What does the bracket you have look like? Some bracket's have much less flotation than other's.

They can range to the simple/least flotation



To much more with twice the flotation.

The Bracket is identical to the one mounted on the boat above except it's for a single engine.
