wow, just wow... In reality it probably doesn't handle that bad. There is a lot of leverage hanging way out there, but it probably is the same or less than a big car engine mounted at the back of the boat.

Come on! That bracket is clearly worth his asking price alone. Why would you steer away from such a deal!

Re: now thats one interesting ob bracket

realisticly, there is no reason it wouldn't work or be solid aslong as the reinforced the transom, but it doesn't make much sence to me. Why is it so long?

Says he hasn't had it in the water-hmmm. I wonder how much transom will be above water line with all that weight out back?

Anyone notice the timber under the back of the trailer to keep it from tipping up. It might lift the whole back of the tow vehicle off the ground.
