Pro-Drive 36 Roll cage
Does anyone know of a cage that bolts onto the motor to protect against impacts? When water levels are high and Im running around trees I have broken a few vital parts off my engine. No fun. If anyone knows of a remedy/protector for the motor besides the obvious of avoiding impacts please let me know

Re: Pro-Drive 36 Roll cage
Rubbermaid with some vents cut in it to allow proper airflow for cooling. Beyond that, probably gonna have to find a local welder to fab something up for you, or get creative with some sheet metal and angle iron. Maybe some expanded metal instead.

Re: Pro-Drive 36 Roll cage
Have you noticed the engine guards on the very new Prodrive's? Worth a look

Re: Pro-Drive 36 Roll cage
I had the same issue with my old boat. My new boat has a poling platform and it does a great job protecting the motor .

Re: Pro-Drive 36 Roll cage
The new pro drives come with a cover. It would be easy to bend a plate to fit. It would be bolted where your tilt handle is at

Re: Pro-Drive 36 Roll cage
I thought about this sometime back. I hit a tree and almost ripped off my oil dipstick. Apparently you can't replace those. It would be nice to have something.

Re: Pro-Drive 36 Roll cage
The oil dipstick and dipstick tube are replaceable. The tube is just friction fit.
