"Back" on the water with the Family!

[font "Tempus Sans ITC"][#808000][size 3]Saberfish, all of them are good points. But it was mounted with rubber under the pads, and everything was carfully leveled as tightend, and tightend evenly. In my opinion this type of mount is not ment[/size][/#808000][/font][font "Tempus Sans ITC"][#808000][size 3] to be made for my type of boat is all. With the Crestliner the motor has to be so far forward to clear the gunnell that it half of the mount is on the gunnell and half on the the carpeted part of the boat. These two surfaces are not level, which complicates the mounting. I think on a bass type of boat where you could mount it flat without any rubber under it, it would be successfull, just not on my type of boat. I think the rubber is what gave it to much play even when tightend properly that the torque from the electric finally took its toll.[/size][/#808000][/font]

[font "Tempus Sans ITC"][#808000][size 3]I will be removing the bottom peice, it is just meant to mount to the existing holes when I had the motor hard mounted. I will just use the smaller Puck mount that sits on top it is still all right and everything will work just fine. I will just end up with extra holes in my boat, no big deal.[/size][/#808000][/font]
