Transom Savers

[Andrew Zuber]

Smitty's post got me thinking (scary thought!)

Plus, the board seems a bit slow this morning...

So...



Does it matter how high the motor is tilted up when you put it on the trasom saver for trailering?

Just thinking that the higher up it is tilted, the more centered over the transom the weight would be...? Less stress on the transom when hitting our Michigan potholes!

Does it even matter???

Andy, I don't know if there is a specific height that it needs to be. With my transom saver I kept adjusting the length (making it shorter)until the motor sat firmly in the holder. It rides plenty high enough to avoid those Michigan or Illinois pot holes.



I still hope to hit the St. Joe one of these days.



Have a good season

Illinois pot holes? Other than ChiTown I didnt think they existed. Heck we have potholes bigger than some of your lakes.....

Well Mini our lakes aren't very big around here!LOL I know what you mean though. I am originally from Houghton Lake Michigan and they are currently waiting for the roads to lay back down once the frost is out of them.
