Eldor, Didn't your motor sacrifice itself to save the gel coat? Did the motor exact a fitting revenge on the guy's hood? Now I will have to fit a removable array of steel spikes on the stern, or just suck it up and carry the motor to the truck. Tom On Mar 20, 2010, at 5:28 PM, eisenee@aol.com wrote:

Just leave the motor mounted on the motor bracket for trailering. It works fine ith the Yamaha 4hp 4 stoke, which weighs about 58 pounds. --Gary Hyde 005 M17 #637 sailboat 'Hydeaway 2'

Folks, I think the main problem with the weight of outboards is lifting the darn hings up to the mount, a not inconsiderable task for some. How about ditching he boarding ladder, throwing on another motor mount, and running twin 2's?
