Kicker connection to main outboard.

Recommended Posts

Good morning and Happy Easter.

I have a 95 201 CC Mako with a 200 Yamaha 2 stroke.

Just picked up a 22 Yamaha T-9.9 kicker.

Bought a Panther kicker bracket over the winter.

Because of the motor well on this boat , I think the connection will need to be made  at the rear of the 2 motors.

Anyone have a rear setup that they would recommend?

Any advice would be great.

Want to do this once and right the first time.

Thanks 

Mitch.

they make an ez-steer bracket for i/o to outboard. but you need to measure the distance between the back of the motor and outdrive so you can order the length rod you need. i have an old rod and outboard hook ups but don't have the i/o bracket. and offhand i don't remember the length. they adjust from the short length to the extended length. just make sure it's right. it needs to extend when you trim the kicker.

Maybe I'm over thinking it but "rear of the motor" could be slightly ambiguous depending on how you're looking at the motors. But there are options for connecting it from either side. You just need to measure to make sure you get a kit with the right size rod for the space in between the motors.

EZ Steer or Panther Aux bracket
