I have learned to this point, that transom savors can damage the motor and not under warranty. The most important thing is to stop movement during travel. Wedges with steering locks are the preferred way of travel from any motor and boat manufacturer. Fyi. Thought I would share

I figured. Thank you sir

Thank you sir

Gotcha. I wont have that problem. I dont think. Lol. I'm Repowering b4 spring, and adding a kicker. Never had a kicker b4. So we will see

Doesnt one leave a kicker in the down position when trailering? And leave it in gear so the prop wont spin? There is no threat of hitting the ground or anything so why use anything at all on a kicker?

I had a professional repower installer text me back , and this is what he ssid

S ratchet is probably a strong word, marred is a better word

Nice, what about your steering. What do you use so your motor dont wobble left n right?

Putting a new yamaha sho 200hp on my 196, and I really wanted NOT to have a trasom bar saver.. I'd rather go with the wedge style by the trim. And steering locks...Is the trasom strong enouph for this "long term"? I like the idea of getting the weight off during travel with the bar, but i hate scratching up a $20k gear case.. so I was wondering if some has a definitive answer to this for this specific model, and not just an opinion.

You have yours mounted to your swim platform? Or is it now on the port side right off the transom? Also I figured I will be using the tiller in the upper position, with that said, can I maneuver the boat "normal" let's say for steering the boat while jigging the Detroit river??

Hello all!!! I bought my starcraft fishmaster 2 years ago, I'm getting ready to add a kicker on this boat. And I want a Tiller for a few different reason. But the question I'm struggling with is.. WILL A TILLER KICKER 9.9 YAMAHA fit on the back port side.. will the tiller hit the splash wall or be a issue in any way??? PLEASE HELP!!. ALSO what's the best plate I should use if I can put it right on the boat a not use a bracket.. Thanks in advance all!!!
