Transom Savers

Used a transom saver for 40 years and never had a problem.

I had a crutch type on my bass boat without issue, 150hp. I’ve got a small one on the 25 I have now. I’ve watched small outboards really take a ride while following folks. The ones built into the smaller motors aren’t made to take a hard shot without something breaking.

I use the rite hite motor holder & a set of TH marine steering clips.

Same here and nothing attached, no bungie, nothing, just the motor.

One thing to take into account on this would be the condition of the transom. I would think the weight of the outboard would flex the transom on older boats or ones with compromised transoms.

I picked up my new boat today. It has a Panther brand transom saver on it. It screws into the trailer with really course threads. Seems pretty sturdy.

Had a friend just have an "F AND F " wielded because who owned it first did not use a motor toter . F/F are very well built .
