Yes, My boat was designed for 20in shaft's. The bracket is installed for 2- 25in shaft's. It moves the powerhead higher to keep it out of the wash better.

Mike, the only mistake with my bracket was taking their advice to have it powder coated rather than awlgripped. It has lost its initial lustre and scratches rather easily.

Yep, Powdercoating is overated. Even the powdercoting guy told me that.
I had mine blasted and then sprayed it with Deft epoxy [Black/greenish] primer. I top coated that with 545 Awlgrip epoxy primer. The 545 is a primer/surfacer. The Deft is used on Fighter aircraft on their landing gear. This stuff is tenacious. My brother had a small crack in the custom alum tree stand's he build's. He had to grind it away. Then he put the TIG torch to it. It didn't even blister, just a slight color change.
