    Boat came with a 9.9 Honda 4 stroke mounted out on the corner with an easy lift . motor did not have power trim or tilt had controls up front for forward /reverse only. bought a 9.9 Yamaha high thrust with controls and power trim/tilt . would like to make a solid mount so i do not have to use the easy lift system . The back of the boat has about a 3 inch lip that protrudes out at the top. so in order to let the motor tilt full up i would have to have a bracket that will be out about 19 inches from the boat , motor needs about 16 inches of clearance for cover to clear the back lip . I have a 3/8 aluminium plate for the back to weld on and a 14 inch plate for the inside of transom for support. next problem would be steering rod with motor out so far. can i use the main prop to steer with and have the kicker just going straight. want to move motor in towards the center of the boat also. and then there is the cables if the motor is to close to the back of boat when you tilt it up. any ideas that would help before i start this project . also do the electric steering work well . been told they can be a pain also . one guy said he made his own and works better then the factory ones . Thanks for reading this.

    Just purchased a 210 Sportcraft with an 4.3 inboard , boat has a 9.9 Honda kicker with cables , not real keen with the way the 9.9 is on Transom, very little support , just wondering if i remove the 9.9 if i can use the 4.3 with a couple of drift socks on the boat , never had an inboard motor before. Will the 4.3 bog down after trolling for a while . want to make a plate with more support for the kicker over the winter and buy a kicker with power trim/tilt. if the 4.3 will not work. can i still use the main prop to steer with the main motor turned off using the kicker . also can the kicker be set to go straight and only use the outboard to steer with . looks like putting on the steering rod is a pain to put on out on the lake . Any advise would be great. Thanks

    They did not turn to mush, they seem to last for bout an hour of trolling then start to fall apart.

    Would anyone know how to make lake smelts stronger to use for bait , I tried to put them in different solutions and even injected into the belly with a needle , still after a year they are soft and seem to fall apart when used with an anchovies head behind a spin doctor. Maybe just a waste of time trying. Thanks
