    Default Outboard Motor Mount Locks - Best Type?


    Does anyone have any of the various types of motor mount lock devices on their small outboards (30-50HP Range)?
    I seen a few but most are made for motors with thumb screws. My motor is hard mounted to the transom.
    Any suggestions for the best type of lock?

    Trying to avoid being a victim. I bought the hull from a guy who had his motor stolen and was so mad he sold the boat!

    That type lock is as rare as hen's teeth but these people make one.

    I dont know what it is called but dont waste your money on the one that looks like a piece of sq tubing and has a lock in the middle to hold it together.I just traded for a boat that had one on it well me and and my small pry bar had it off in about 3 min or less.
